This Precious Time (Long Lonely Road)

Written by: Dave Davies

Published by: Dabe Music

Lyrics:

You are here, no place to go
Lost in a world that's got no soul
Mocking faces all around you
Shifting about in ever restless irony

We give you all our love
And hope your heart can change your mind
Yet I see you and me
As we wander endlessly
On this long lonely road

Who are you, who have the right to say
You lead us on and then you steal away
With the gifts that were offered
Time again and again

We give you all our love
And hope your heart can change your mind
Yet I see you and me as we wander endlessly
On this long lonely road

Instrumental

Could we but see
The unrest that surrounds you and me
Will produce a good that will far outweigh the evil of this world
Seek within your soul and earn the right to know
I cannot speak
These words just drag me down

Yes I see you and me
As we wander endlessly
On this long lonely road
