Precious Love
Joshua Perahia Lyrics

So this is love
The singer has experienced love before, but is now expressing that they are currently experiencing love that is different and significant

I've heard it a thousand times before
The singer is acknowledging that love is a common topic and theme in music and storytelling

This perfect love
The love being described is ideal and fulfilling

Will never leave me wanting more
The singer is confident that the current love being experienced is perfect and will not leave them unsatisfied

One too many times I've waited alone
The singer has felt lonely and helpless in the search for love in the past

Afraid that my heart would turn to stone
The singer was worried that the lack of love and companionship would make them emotionally numb and unfeeling

How would I know?
The singer is expressing uncertainty and questioning how they could have found their current love without experiencing past challenges and heartbreaks

How would I see?
The singer wonders how they could have recognized and appreciated their current love without experiencing past failures and losses

The love that I feel
The singer is describing their current emotions and the intensity of their love

Such a mystery
The singer is admitting that the complexity and depth of their love is difficult to understand and explain

Time after time, I've turned away
The singer has had previous relationships and experiences with love that did not work out

Oh and felt so lonely
The singer experienced intense negative emotions after each failure in finding love

Day after day, I see in you, my one and only
The singer has found their true soulmate and is expressing their love and admiration for them

Precious love, take my sorrow
The singer is asking their soulmate to help them overcome past pain, sadness, and grief

Precious love, stand by my side
The singer is expressing their desire and need for their soulmate's companionship and support

Precious love, come tomorrow
The singer is expressing their hope and trust that their soulmate will always be there for them in the future

Heaven knows there's nothing to hide
The singer is expressing that their love and feelings for their soulmate are genuine and sincere

So shine down your light
The singer is asking for their soulmate's love and guidance to help them through difficult times

On of this heart of mine
The singer is expressing their vulnerability and openness to their soulmate's love and influence

So lost in love
The singer is expressing that their new love is intense and all-encompassing

My eyes couldn't see the light of day
The singer was so focused on their new love that they could not see anything else in their life

As time passes by
The singer is acknowledging that time plays a significant role in relationships and life

I searched the world for someone to set me free
The singer has been on a journey to find their true soulmate and escape the pain of loneliness and unhappiness

I see the sun fade in the night
The singer is expressing the passing of time and the transition from day to night

And I can hear you calling
The singer is describing the comforting and supportive nature of their soulmate

Ooh, the flame is burning bright
The singer is expressing their passion and intensity for their love

Take my soul
The singer is offering their entire being to their soulmate and their love

Ooh, sets the world Oh
The singer is expressing the power and influence of their love on their life and the world around them

Sets the world over
The singer is expressing the magnitude and universality of their love

Precious love
The singer is addressing and expressing their love to their soulmate
