Precious

(álbum: Elysian Fields - 2020)

If you feels like the rug was pulled out from under your feet
It was
You say I look sad in every picture of me
It's 'cause
I never got what I wanted
But I sure got what I deserved

I feel shame, shame, shame
And it comes in waves and waves and waves
And it lasts for days and days and days, oh

How could I be so selfish?
And let you go just like that
How am I supposed to leave you
And not come running back?
How could you be so perfect?
How could I be so wrong about someone who loved me so right?
I should've known that you were precious

And just like a rose we can open up only to
Be crushed
Don't know if I'm sorry for me or sorry for you
It's just
Easier to do the breaking
I don't know what I'm saying, it's so messed up

How could I be?

How could I be so selfish?
And let you go just like that
How am I supposed to leave you
And not come running back?
How could you be so perfect?
How could I be so wrong about someone who loved me so right?
I should've known that you were precious, mmm
I should've known that you were precious, precious, precious
Ooh, should've known, should've known, should've known
Should've known that you were precious, precious, precious

Sorry that I didn't see your SOS (SOS)
I was way too busy making my own mess (My own mess)

I feel shame, shame, shame
And it comes in waves and waves and waves
And it lasts for days and days and days, oh

How could I be?
How could I be so selfish?
Let you go just like that
How am I supposed to leave you
And not come running back?
How could you be so perfect?
How could I be so wrong about someone who loved me so right?
I should've known that you were precious
(Should've known) Oh-oh, should've known that you were precious
(Should've known) Precious, precious, precious oh-oh
(Should've known) Should've known, should've known, oh-oh
(Should've known) Precious, precious, oh
