JD McPherson - Precious Lyrics

The twilight fades, it's a precious thing
The even tide under lock and key
It's so heavenly, heavenly right now
"A Letter to Elise" playin' on repeat
Playing songs of the minor key was my policy
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 and 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 even tide 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

(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
