For Your Precious Love
Into each life
A little rain must fall
Every day can't be Sunday
And every smile isn't a smile of happiness
And every tear that's shed's not a tear of joy
I'd like to take a little time
To dedicate this song
To everyone who is in the presence of my voice
Especially for those who have loved ones far, far away
Maybe she's across the sea
Or maybe she's just in another town
I can imagine when you're all alone
In the wee, wee hour of the night
You just might decide to write
Knowing all the time that you just can't find the right words to say
You can say, darling
For your precious love
I'd give you the world on a silver cloud
But you know as well as I that that would be a lie
Now if you'll just take these few lines from me
The letter you're trying to write would be such a comfort to your loved ones
Now listen
For your precious love
I'd climb the highest mountain
I'd even go out as far as trying to swim the deepest sea
Now listen and maybe Blondie will give you a better understanding
Of what I'm trying to say
Your precious love
Means more to me
Than any love could ever be
For I wanted you
I was so lonely and so blue
But, oh, that's what love can make me do
And darling
This is what some of my so-called friends say
They try to say that our love won't grow
But I just want to be the one to tell them
How in the world do they know?
For as long
For as long as you're in love with me
I know our love will grow wider, baby
Deeper than any sea now
And of all
All the things I ever wanna hear you say in this whole wide world.
My my my my baby
All I want is you
Baby, baby
Baby, baby, that's all I want from you
Baby, baby
