Very Precious Love

A very precious love

Is what you are to me

A stairway to a star

A night in Shangri-La

Of ecstasy



Lanterns of gold

Lanterns of blue

Twinkle in the shadows

While I dance with you



An echo in the wind

(An echo in the wind)

Across the summer lake

(Across the summer lake)



Is saying you should know

That lanterns lose their glow

And hearts can break

(And hearts can break)



So hold me close, my darling

Then kiss me tenderly

And give your precious love

Your very precious love to me



So hold me close, my darling

Then kiss me tenderly

And give your precious love

Your very precious love to me

(My very precious love)
