The Precious Moments
Matt Monro
They are so few
The precious moments of our lives
They fade from view
And when they do, we try to live them anew
Which would they be?
The precious moments of our lives
If we could see into the past
And maybe keep two or three
The moments of youth
The moments of truth
And the moments of giving
That make life worth living
The moments of joy
And the moments of pain
And the moments we know
We will not know again
Yes, these are the moments we all should recall
Moments and memories of dreams great and small
Guess we were lucky to know them at all
Yes, we were lucky to know them at all
They're there to share
The precious moments of our lives
Treat them with care
For they are rare
And let's be glad they are there
Treat them with care
For they are rare
And let's be glad they are there
Be glad they are there
