Ray Charles Precious Thing
Precious Thing
Ray Charles feat Dee Dee Bridgewater
(Dee Dee)
Take your ring
Isn't it strange, your always leaving things
Never mind, I know this room is not a home
I hope I made you feel less alone
Think of me while you roam
(Ray)
But please no strings
But it’s more, more than just another fling
There are things I believe you should never be told, girl no
But you’re the only one I wanna hold
Cause it can get awfully cold
(Dee Dee)
Precious Thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing
Hey Ray baby, you make me dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love. Til the next…somewhere.
(Ray)
Dee Dee
(Dee Dee)
Yes Ray
(Ray)
Keep the ring
(Dee Dee)
Oh no baby
(Ray)
Ain’t it funny, right?
I’m always losing things.
But you’re like me, you know the road would be your home, girl.
I hope I made you feel less alone
Think of me as you roam.
(Dee Dee)
Whoa, Precious Thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing.
(Ray)
Girl, You make me dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love. Til the next…somewhere.
(Dee Dee)
You say no strings
But freedom is still as much yours as my thing
I know promises can be hard to keep
The price I paid to learn, oh baby was just too steep
But my still my love runs deep
(Both)
Precious Thing
You know our love is such a wonderful thing
You make dizzy whispering in my ear
Soon my love. Til the next…somewhere.
