For Your Precious Love Lyrics - David Allan Coe

You know when I first started doing this album I thought 

All these songs about just gettin' the divorce 

And there was one thing I wanted to tell you darlin' darlin' 

Before the music stops for me and you and that's what you meant to me 

And even thought the divorce is final now 

I wanted to sing you this one last love song 

Your precious love means more to me than any love could ever be 

For when I wanted you I was so lonely and so blue 

For that's what love will do 

And darlin' (I'm so surprised) oh when I first realized 

That you weren't fooling me 

And darlin' they say that our love won't grow 

But I just want to tell them that they don't know 

For as long as you're in love with me our love will grow wider depper than any sea 

And of all the things all the things that I want in this whole wide world 

Is just for you to say that you'll be my girl 

Oooh (wanting you) I'm wanting you (I'm so blue) oh that's what live will do 

I gave it a hundred and ten percent of my soul 

And I tried everything I could to hold it together 

But now that it's over I just wanted you to know 

That anytime you have sunshine you're gonna have bad weather 

Some people they can handle that and some people can't 

Just for the record another chapter in my life 

And you were that chapter just divorced 

Maybe they should write that on my tombstone darlin' 

Would that make you happy then 

Your precious love means more...
