[Verse 1]
We're doing it all by feel
Feel and error
I remember I was halfway down the stairs
Doing it all by feel
Then your shape in the doorway, hands to the sky
I figured it out
The vibe's in the verses
And planting my songs over the curses
Sure it broke my heart, but then again
I think it fixed my vision, oh yeah
[Chorus]
I've been turning to precious
Down in the dark again
When I get under the pressure
Baby, you get the gem
[Verse 2]
I'm doing it all by memory
Shit I never did before
And it's easier without you honey, helping
Do you only think about your money?
Like I only think about the starlife
Of my body and the beat
And how good, how good it can all be feeling
I won't give that away
[Chorus]
I've been sharp as a razor
Cutting my teeth again
When I look into the mirror
Baby, I see the gem
Looking back at me
[Bridge]
I'm all vision tonight
Don't you miss this sparkle
I mean shiny prism of light
What if you had known
What you had in your hands?
[Chorus]
Ah, vision tonight (I've been turning to precious)
Don't you miss this sparkle (Down in the dark again)
I mean shiny prism of light (When I get under the pressure)
What if you had known (Baby, you get the gem)
What you had in your hands?
Ah, vision tonight (I've been sharp as a razor)
Don't you miss this sparkle (Cutting my teeth again)
I mean shiny prism of light (When I look into the mirror)
What if you had known
What if you had known
What if you had known
What you had in your hands?
