Your Precious Love
Sarah Connor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everyday, there's something new honey, to keep me loving you
And with every passing minute, so much joy wrapped up in it
Oh! heaven must have sent you from above
Oh, heaven must have sent your precious love
And now, I've got a song to sing,
Tellin' the world about the joy you bring
And you gave me reason for living
And oh, you taught me the meaning of giving

Oh, oh! heaven must have sent you from above
Oh, heaven must have sent your precious love
To find a love like yours is rare these days
'Cause you've shown me what happiness is in so many ways
I look in the mirror and I'm glad
To see laughter in the eyes where tears used
To be

What you've given me I could never return
'Cause there's so much girl I've yet to learn
And I want to show my appreciation, cause when I found you
I found a new inspiration





Oh, oh! heaven must have sent you from above
Oh, heaven must have sent your precious love
