Richard Thompson - Precious One lyrics

Precious One, Precious One Thought you stood so sweet upon your own two feet Precious One, Precious One Thought there was no breeze could bring you to your knees But I was wrong I was wrong Precious One, Precious One Should have been a light to guide you through the night Precious One, Precious One Wanted to believe you had no need to grieve But I was wrong I was wrong I was wrong, I was wrong Should have wrapped you in my arms Around you tight To say, I'm here What's done is done What's done is done Precious One, Precious One Wish there was a tide to bring you me to your side Precious One, Precious One Didn't want to run or leave it all undone O I was wrong I was wrong Precious One, Precious One Thought you stood so sweet upon your own two feet Precious One, Precious One Thought there was no breeze could bring you to your knees But I was wrong I was wrong
