Our Precious Love

Otis Redding

For 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



Darling, I'm so surprised,

Oh, when I first realized

That you were fooling me

Darling, they say that our love won't grow

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

For as long as you, long as you are loving me

Our love will grow wider, deeper than any sea

And all the things in the world, in this whole wide world

Is just that you would say that you'd be my girl



( Wanting you ) Wanting you, ( I'm lonely and blue ) Whoa, lonely

That's what love will do



For your precious love means more to me

Than any love could ever be

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

That's what love will do
