Hey lady with the precious lines
Stretched out across your face
Each line tells a story
Each story has its place
Old December cold as snow
We watched pretty people
As they come and go
In this life
Such a precious time

Tell me of your first love
Tears we all have wept
Tell me of your true love
Beneath the secrets you have kept
As sure as autumn breezes blow
We'll watch pretty people
As they come and go
In this life
Such a precious time

Refrão:
Sometimes love can be unkind
We let it feed our hearts
Until it feeds our minds
And you rise us up
And you put us down
And we find the strength
To come around again
Sometimes love

Hey lady with the precious lines
Stretched out across the page
Each line paints a picture
Brings on life another stage
Younger than I never knew
We're just pretty people
As we're passing through
In this life
Such a precious time

Refrão

Sometimes love can be so blind
We let it feed our hearts
Until it feeds our minds
And you rise us up and you
Put us down
And we find the strength
To come around again

Sometimes love

Such a precious time...
Such a precious time...
