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
Oo, how precious time placed its hand on me
Oo, 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 I left behind
Left for all to grow
Oo, precious time placed its hand on me
Oo, precious time, how it rescued me
Oo, how it rescued me, how it rescued me

Refrain:
Oh, there's a place in time not far from here
A place we all could see
So if you're lookin' for a better day
Touch the sky and see
Oh, precious time placed its hand on me
Oh, 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'll see
Oh how precious time placed its hand on me
Yeah precious time
How it rescued me, baby, baby it rescued me

(Refrain)
