"Precious Thing (Till The Next... Somewhere)" lyrics - DEE DEE BRIDGEWATER

[Dee Dee:]
Take your ring
Isn't strange you're always leaving things
Never mind I know this room is not a home
I hope I made you feel less alone
Think of me while you roam

[Ray:]
But please no strings
But it's more, more than just another fling
There are things I believe should never be told, girl no
But you're the only one I wanna hold
'Cause it can get awfully cold

[Dee Dee:]
Precious thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing
Hey Ray baby,
You make me dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love. Till the next... somewhere

[Ray:]
Dee Dee

[Dee Dee:]
Yes Ray

[Ray Charles]
Keep the ring

[Dee Dee:]
Oh no baby

[Ray:]
Ain't it funny, right? I'm always losing things
But you're like me, you've know the road
Would be your home, girl
I hope I made you feel less alone
Think of me as your own

[Dee Dee:]
Whoa, Precious Thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing

[Ray:]
Girl, You make me dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love, till the next, somewhere

...

[Dee Dee:]
Say no strings
Oh freedom is still as much yours as my thing
I know promises can be hard to keep
The price I paid to learn, oh baby, was just too steep
But still my love runs deep

[Both:]
Precious thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing
You make me dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love, till the next... somewhere...
