Precious

They'll try to take you and steal your heart

They'll try to make you something you aren't

You can be swept like sand on the beach

But not out of reach

Don't let 'em drag you down, hold on

Know that you're precious

Know that you're precious

Know that you're precious (Mmm)

So precious

And in another land there's a voiceless cry

'Cause all humanity sailed on by

Been betrayed a thousand times, still the children stand

With no helping hand

Just a knowledge in their souls that it shouldn't be

Well, know that they're precious

Know that they're precious

Know that they're precious (Yeah)

So precious

And in our motherland is the fountain dry?

Empty smiles that speak and long for days gone by

And I feel the night is closing in

If you feel it too

Let me wrap my arms safe close around you

Know that you're precious

Know that you're precious

Know that you're precious (Oh yeah)

So precious
