Lyrics of the Day #7 -- Precious

[lunasantin]

Yeah. So. I got a CD, today. Finally cashed in that credit I had at FYE for the bad Muse disc they inadvertently sold me. They were very good about the whole affair, I like the store. And the band, good lord, they've been around for so long and from what I've heard they deserve it.

Depeche Mode - Precious

Precious and fragile things need special handling.
My God what have we done to you?
We always tried 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.

Edit. Ashley asked why I posted these, a good question. It's a beautiful song and it makes me think romantic pretty thoughts.
