Fragile Precious

I know what it is to be a
Stepping-outside-to-feel-ya
Ain’t no other thing
That’s on your mind
Give enough time to read us
Pick enough words to heal us
Love your enemy
But know your kind
I can’t keep on trying to be there
When you’re moving on
Put your heart in what is left
Tell me we can do it
Don’t lose your mind
We still got time
Saving our fragile precious
Sleep on your side
I’ll keep an eye
Keeping us from feeling desperate
Saving our fragile precious
Waiting on time to reach ya
Selling my heart for free
This ain’t lateral
Is love so blind
Giving myself to win ya
Ain’t no remedy in that
Takes your energy
And keeps your mind
Lying, breaking, foster-feeding
I don’t even cry
Hurting, loving, coming, leaving
Tell me we can free us
Don’t lose your mind
We still got time
Saving our fragile precious
Sleep on your side
I’ll keep an eye
Keeping us from feeling desperate
Saving our fragile precious
Saving our time, oh
And I can see it in our bodies they are growing separate
I can hear it every word you say about you and I
And I don’t know should I hope when you feel so breathless
When you’re moving on
Don’t lose your mind
We still got time
Saving our fragile precious
Sleep on your side
I’ll keep an eye
Keeping us from feeling desperate
Saving our fragile precious
Saving our fragile precious
