This Precious Time (feat. The Mamas & The Papas)

You've been keeping me lonely You've been keeping me down And I'm sitting here wondering Why I'm still hanging around The night's grown cold, babe Can't you see the signs? Ah, there's no use wasting This precious time Look out your window Ah, can't you see? That the sun is getting fast For you and me Ah, you've grown hard, babe Can't you see the signs? Ah, there's no use wasting This precious time Well, I should be out seeking Instead of hiding Yeah, I should be out laughing Instead of crying, crying, crying 'Coz you've been keeping me lonely You've been keeping me down And I'm sitting here thinking to myself Why I'm sticking around When you no longer hear me And your eyes can't see What this precious time Means to someone like me Oh, I wanna start living Life's for the taking And I've gotta start living If I wanna be tasting, tasting, tasting This precious time
