It came to pass
|
Like lightening striking from above
|
Electric flash
|
Just like lightening striking from above
|
Struck by precious love
|
Precious, precious love
|
So hopeless and so inspired
|
Why do you dream flat tires
|
When you dream flat tires?
|
You dream flat tires
|
|
With a jack and a spare you're there
|
Trying to get to where love is
|
Coming in on a wing and a prayer
|
Trying to get to where love is
|
'Cause love is precious love
|
You said it was precious
|
When first you felt my fire
|
Before you dreamed flat tires
|
You dreamed flat tires
|
You dream flat tires
|
|
"Woman she bounce back easy
|
But a man could break both his legs"
|
Are you telling me that to tease me?
|
Or just to hear me beg
|
"Please don't go!"
|
|
Cause I know that you love me
|
But, when are you going to let love be
|
Just a vague flirtation
|
Or extra special company?
|
'Cause love is precious love
|
Everybody knows it's precious
|
When first they feel that fire
|
Before they dream flat tires
|
They dream flat tires
|
They dream flat tires
|
|
"Woman she bounce back easy
|
But a man could break both his legs"
|
Do you tell me that to tease me
|
Or just to hear me beg
|
"Please don't be cold"
|
|
I know that you love me
|
But, what are you going to let love do?
|
(Flat tires, love, love is precious, flat tires,
|
love, love is precious, flat tires, love,
|
love is precious)
