Song lyrics

Send "Precious" ringtones to your cell

Precious and fragile things 
Need special handling 
My God what have we done to you? 

We always try to share 
The tenderest of care 
Now look what we have put you through 

Things get damaged 
Things get broken 
I thought we'd manage 
But words left unspoken 
Left us so brittle 
There was so little left to give 

Angels with silver wings 
Shouldn't know suffering 
I wish I could take the pain for you 

If God has a master plan 
That only He understands 
I hope it's your eyes He's seeing through 

Things get damaged 
Things get broken 
I thought we'd manage 
But words left unspoken 
Left us so brittle 
There was so little left to give 

I pray you learn to trust 
Have faith in both of us 
And keep room in your hearts for two 

Things get damaged 
Things get broken 
I thought we'd manage 
But words left unspoken 
Left us so brittle 
There was so little left to give

381 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I thought they wouldn't do anything as good as Enjoy The Silence. Glad to see they can still write great songs after more than 20 years. (RIP Vince Clarke)

10 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is the kind of song that makes me go and buy the record no matter what the other songs sound like. As you've said, it's GREAT that DM's back and as always, with a fresh, new, and innovative sound. I love what the cd says on the back: 'Pain and suffering in various tempos'
