Precious Little Love
She said it’s easy
And she is right
Because this is me and this is you
This is something we shouldn’t do.
And we won’t.
Cause we follow the rules
And live by the law
Though this something I never foresaw.
It’s wrapped up in glass
And glass doesn’t last
Not under the pressure of people.
It’s easily shattered
But that doesn’t matter
It’s only a little bit lethal.
We’ve got this precious little love
Tainted love
Gonna hold it in the palm of my hand
Our precious little love
Goddamned love
Something nobody else would understand
Precious little love
It’s our love
Something that never starts can never end
And I might put it on a shelf
Be with someone else
But at the end of the day
It’s still there
And if it never falls
Never breaks
Never makes one mistake
Then at the end of the day
No matter how far away
Our little globe of love will be there
And I will still care
We might not talk for a while
But soon as I see that smile
Our precious little love reappears
And I want to see you
But I shouldn’t be near you
You’re throwing away all my fears
But you’re not wiping away any tears
And I will save it for the future
But I can never be sure
That I will be where you are
Right now is right now
And no one knows anyhow
Whether love can be kept in a jar
Would we even make it that far
I’ll take this moment
And store it with the rest
That time when you pulled me
To put my head on your chest
And when we were dancing
And when we got lost
But my poor heart late at night
Has to turn those thoughts off
Maybe one day we’ll sing this duet
And no longer be like that guy and Juliet
And maybe it will work one day
But probably not
And yet I’ll keep this love right in this spot
I don’t like thinking
But I’m overthinking
Turn my mind off let my heart lead
Put it all away
And save it for another day
She said it’s easy
And she is wrong
Because this is you and this is me
And we don’t belong.
