"Precious" lyrics - JD MCPHERSON

"Precious"
(JD McPherson / James Sutton)

When twilight fades, it's a precious thing
The eventide under lock and key
It's so heavenly, heavenly right now

"A Letter to Elise" played on repeat
Playing songs of the minor key
Was my policy, my policy, but now

What does it mean when your heart vibrates?
I thought it was a bad sign
I was living in a sadder time
Now it's done passed on

It's so precious
Precious, precious to me
It's so precious
Precious, precious to me

You don't know how I used to be
The autumn leaves cascade through the window
So quietly, then finally touch down

The twilight fades, it's a precious thing
The eventide under lock and key
It's so heavenly, heavenly right now

What does it mean when your blood vibrates?
I thought it was a bad sign
There was a word I never tried to speak
Now it's a battle cry

It's so precious
Precious, precious to me
It's so precious
Precious, precious to me
