A Very Precious Love Lyrics

A Very Precious Love
Doris Day
From the Warner Bros. Picture "Marjorie Morningstar"

Ev'ry show must have a song
Most ev'ryone agrees
For what else could the ingenue
and the juvenile reprise

And so I wrote a random note,
a harmony or two
And when it came to add the words
I tried describing you

A very precious love
Is what you are to me
A stairway to a starThe Ames Brothers - A Very Precious Love - http://motolyrics.com/the-ames-brothers/a-very-precious-love-lyrics.html
A night in Shangril?of ecstasy

Lanterns of gold
Lanterns of blue
Twinkle in the shadows
While I dance with you
An echo in the wind
Across the summer lake
Is sayin' you should know
that lanterns lose their glow
and hearts can break

So hold me close my darling
then kiss me tenderly
And give your precious love
Your very precious love to me
