Precious Time

Pound for pound and cheek to cheek

Cheek paler than the lamp light

Take me down to light the box

We'll play super Scalectrix

And turn to this

Darkness into light

And I'll turn too bright

The better for hype

I'll need heart and you'll need courage

We all need

Toe to toe, nowhere to go

So I'm tiptoeing around it

I held you down and I held my own

Now I feel like I'm floating

So turn to this head on

And keep on, keeping on

I'll need heart and you'll need courage

We all need time

So let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Don't you know, nobody knows

If there's somebody waiting

You'll hold yourself up and you'll hold yourself in

And pray that you're growing

And turn to this

Darkness, you turn it into light

And then you'll turn too bright

The better for hype

And I'll need heart and you'll need courage

We all need time

So let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about it

Let's take our precious time about

'Cause we'll need heart and we'll need courage

In these times

We'll need heart and we'll need courage

In these times

'Cause time can mean so much

Are you still mine?
