Watching the ice melt between us Just faster than gra** grows Itís not the best that weíve seen us But nothing else I'd have chose Reminds me of a time When anything could have come Anything could have happened What a fantastic feeling Time is precious as you say it is I wanna know that we didn't miss It goes by quickly youíll soon find out I wonít go down Time is precious as you say it is I wanna know that we didnít miss It goes by quickly youíll soon find out When you fight to resist Emotion with a fist An irresistible force will always Prevail The fortress goes crumbling down Around you where you stand What was once strong mortar Is now a pile of sand Time is just as precious as you say it is I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss I've dodged so many bullets that Iím careful now I wonít go down Time is just as precious as you say it is I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss I've dodged so many bullets that I'm careful now From reckless to recluse And sometimes back again Left wondering what's the use Of a life of mischief spent Makes cool the desert sun The piece of mind that you gave me Absolve me for things I've done Only that can save me Time is just as precious as you say it is I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss I've dodged so many bullets that I'm careful now I wonít go down Time is just as precious as you say it is I wanna spend it and know that we didnít miss Iíve dodged so many bullets that Iím careful now
