Keep It Precious - Melissa Etheridge

You brought me to trust you brought me to tears

In one tender touch the pain disappears

I have been to the sword seen it come seen it die

As we enter the dark I beseech you to try

In prophecy all good things must end

So take care my love my friend

Keep it precious

Keep it precious

This yielding is fine this promise rare

One day at a time we’ve agreed to dare

Holding you tight with wide open arms

I’m letting you go no stranger to harm

Go on ride your way do not break or bend

Just take care my love my friend

Keep it precious

Keep it precious

And the wonder let the wonder never cease

And the madness of the pleasure and ecstasy

Danger believing me Wounding and healing me please

Keep it precious

I believe in your eyes I believe in your fate

I believe we can fly on the wings we create

A voice from behind calls up anger and fear

We can silence that scream it’s simple and clear

Nothing must die only if failed to mend

So take care my love my friend

Keep it precious
