I was so lost, didn't know what to do with myself, 
I was my own worst enemy, I was lost and oh I needed help, 
Then you came along, and saw what state I was in, 
You picked me up, when I was down, 
Showed me how to live again. 

I say thank you, for pulling me through, 
I'm a lucky man, 
I didn't know what life was 
But now I understand, 

This is precious love, its precious love 
No I can't let it go, 
This is precious love, and its teaching me, 
Everything I need to know, 
This is precious love, oh its precious love 
No I cant get enough, 
Oh I'm down on my knees begging you please, 
To gimmie more of that stuff. 

Love, love, love, love, love, precious love 
Oh its love, love, love, love, love, precious love 

Oh I got so distracted, 
By people all around, whispering sweet nothings, 
Filling my head with doubt, 
So I gave up, it didn't take long for me to see 
The one thing that I was missing, was standing in front of me. 

Took you for granted, thought the grass, 
As greener on the other side. 
I was wrong, and its taken so long 
For me to finally realize. 

This is precious love, its precious love 
No I can't let it go, 
This is precious love, and its teaching me, 
Everything I need to know, 
Oh this is precious love, oh its precious love 
No I cant get enough, 
Oh I'm down on my knees begging you please, 
To gimmie more of that stuff. 

I say a prayer and send it to you, 
That my heart will always be [bad word] 
Life wont be the same without you 
I say thank you, Mmmm, 
I'm a lucky man, 
I didn't know what life was 
But now I understand, 

Oh this is love, love, love, love, love precious love 
This is precious love, and its teaching me, 
To be a better man, 
This is precious love, oh its precious love 
No I cant get enough, 
Oh I'm down on my knees, it's there that I see 
You must be from heaven above, 

Yeah its love, love, love, love, love, precious love
