Title: “Precious Time”
Written By Marcus Rap/Christine Rap, American Dreamers ® © 2011
V1
In your mind, when the world is yours and time is there
It stands still, you’re worried about getting up the hill, you’re climbing
BRIDGE
You’ll always be that baby in my mind
You were mine to borrow, for a while, don’t fly too far from me
CHORUS
I heard my world was gonna change, watched you grow, felt every pain
Now I’m holding on to precious time
Funny things I thought I knew, till I stood as tall as you
And I remember all those precious times.
Ooooh
V2
When you were small, you used to think that mommy knew it all
We stayed strong, while we taught each other right from wrong and we’ve grown up
BRIDGE
You’ll always be that baby in my mind
You were mine to borrow, for a while
I heard my world was gonna change, watched you grow, felt every pain
Now I’m holding on to precious time
Funny things I thought I knew, till I stood as tall as you
And I remember all those precious times
INTERLUDE
Oooh I wasted so much time, chasing dollars making dimes
Tried to teach you to be kind, you were always on my mind
I would look into your eyes when I tucked you in at night
And I’m thankful for that precious time
