Precious Memories
Jean Shepard · I'll Fly Away [Capitol] [1969]
(J.B.F. Wright)
Precious mem'ries unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger ever near me
And the sacred past unfolds.
Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold.
--- Instrumental ---
Precious father loving mother
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes from my childhood
In fond memory appear.
Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold...
Precious mem'ries unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger ever near me
And the sacred past unfolds.
Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold.

Precious father loving mother
Fly across the lonely years
And old home scenes from my childhood
In fond memory appear.
Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold...
