Precious Things
Bic Runga(빅 룽아) Lyrics

The lyrics of "Precious Thing" by Bic Runga, Dave Dobbyn, and Tim Finn delve into the theme of love and the idea of waiting for someone who is precious to you. When the star gazes bloom and throw their stars around the room and when all the elements conspire with shiny things that catch the eye, the singer of the song is waiting for the day for someone to love them. They describe this person as a precious thing, the thought that makes them sing and wanting to leave all their possessions for them. The idea of this person being rare and precious to them emphasizes the value of love and someone who is special to them.

Furthermore, the singer highlights the fact that these precious things are not something that can be owned by anyone but are specifically for the person they love. The last few lines of the song show that the singer knows exactly what they need to do, which is to call the person they love. The metaphor of the rain on the street shining like bright-colored stone indicates the clarity and purity of their love for this person. The song ends on a note that indicates that this message is for the person they love, emphasizing the intended audience of the song itself.
