Precious Time

Journey · Departure [1980]

I was captured by the light of a wayward smile

When she said to me

Move slowly, son, and touch the sky

Very soon you'll see

Ooh, how precious time

Placed its hand on me

Ooh, how precious time

How it rescued me



See the line of sight inside your mind

But from where I don't know

And the tales that are left behind

Left for all to grow

Ooh, precious time

Placed its hand on me

Ooh, precious time

How it rescued me

Ooh, how it rescued me

How it rescued me



Oh, there's a place in time not far from here

A place we all can see

So if you're looking for a better day

Touch the sky and see

Oh, precious time

Placed its hand on me

Ooh, precious time

How it rescued me



Be the soldiers for your lives my friends

Fight for all to see

It's the only way to catch the sun

It's the only way you see

Oh, how precious time

Placed its hand on me

Yeah, precious time

How it rescued me

Baby, baby, it rescued me



Oh, there's a place in time not far from here

A place we all can see

So if you're looking for a better day

Touch the sky and see

Oh, precious time

Placed its hand on me

Oh, precious time

Ooh, how it rescued me
