Precious Time Songtext

von The Maccabees

Pound for pound, cheek to cheek.
A cheek paler than the lamplight,
Take me down to light the box,
We'll play super scalectrix.

Turn this darkness into light,
Turn to fight the better fight.

You'll need my heart and I'll need courage.
We all need...

Toe to toe and nowhere to go.
So I'm tip-toeing around it.
I held you down and I held my own.
Now I feel like I'm floating.

Turn to this head on end.
Keep on keeping on.

You'll need heart and I'll need courage.
We all need time.

Let's make time work for us. (4x)

Let's take our Precious Time about it. (4x)

Dont you know nobody knows if there's somebody waiting
So you hold yourself up and hold yourself in and pray that
You're growing.

Turn this darkness into light.
Turn to fight the better fight.

You'll need heart I'll need courage.
We all need time.

Let's make time work for us.

Let's take our Precious Time about it.

We'll need heart and we'll need courage in these time
'Cos time can mean so much, are you still mine?
