Swing Out Sister Precious Words Lyrics

(Swing Out Sister)
Another strange awakening
Another memory on its way
Another night in an empty room
Another thrown away day
How long
Must I go on fooling myself?
In a world of make-believe
Precious words
Are all that I have left to prove?
That I've nothing more left to lose
Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me
Loneliness says much more
Than a thousand words ever said
Conversations pass me by
I'm left with silence instead
How long must I go on fooling myself?
In a world of make-believe
Precious words
Are all that I have left to prove?
That I've nothing more left to lose
Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me
You left my world empty
Now there's nothing to say
Precious words
Won't bring you back to me...
How long
Must I go on fooling myself?
In a world of make-believe
Precious words
Are all that I have left to prove?
That I've nothing more left to lose
Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me
You left my world empty
Now there's nothing to say
Precious words
Won't bring you back to me
