[Verse 1]
Well, baby, baby, don't you leave me here to make it alone
'Cause I don't think that I could take it for a day on my own
Why would you wanna hurt me
When I love you, baby, can't you see?
[Chorus]
That you're precious to me (I love you so)
And I can't let you go (Can't let you go)
Baby, one day you'll see (Girl, can't you see?)
That you'll always be (You'll always be)
So precious to me
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Why would you wanna hurt me
When I love you, baby, can't you see?
[Chorus]
That you're precious to me (I love you so)
And I can't let you go (Can't let you go)
Baby, one day you'll see (Girl, can't you see?)
That you'll always be (You'll always be)
So precious to me
[Verse 2]
Oh, baby, baby, you can tell me, when will we meet again?
If I can't be your one and only then I'll have to pretend
Uh-huh, that you're still with me
Girl, I love you so affectionately
[Chorus]
'Cause you're precious to me (I love you so)
And I can't let you go (Can't let you go)
Baby, one day you'll see (Girl, can't you see?)
That you'll always be (You'll always be)
So precious to me
To me
[Chorus]
You're so precious to me (I love you so)
And I can't let you go (Can't let you go)
Baby, one day you'll see (Girl, can't you see?)
That you'll always be (You'll always be)
So precious to me
To me
[Outro]
You're so precious to me
You're precious to me
