Hey lady with the precious lines stretched out across your face
Each line tells a story, each story has its place
Old December cold as snow 
We watched pretty people
As they come and go in this life
Such a precious time

Tell me of your first love, tears we all have wept
Tell me of your true love beneath the secrets you have kept
As sure as autumn breezes blow
We'll watch pretty people
As they come and go in this life
Such a precious time

Sometimes love can be unkind
We let it feed our hearts
Until it feeds our minds
And you rise us up
And you put us down
We find the strength
To come around again

Sometimes love

Hey lady with the precious lines stretched out across the page
Each line paints a picture, brings on life another stage
Younger than I never knew
We're just pretty people
As we're passing through in this life
Such a precious time

Sometimes love can be unkind
We let it feed our hearts
Until it feeds our minds
And you rise us up
And you put us down
And we find the strength
To come around again

Sometimes love can be so blind
We let it feed our hearts
Until it feeds our minds
And you rise us up 
And you put us down
And we find the strength
To come around again

Sometimes love

Such a precious time
Such a precious time
