A million tiny lights are strung across the western sky

They burn to light our mission

But it's just a million lonely hearts strung out from never asking why

We burn with blind ambition I heard somebody say, I don't regret my wedding day

But something's wrong, it's not the same

I'm lonely and I'd start again

If I had the time precious time But I don't ask much just to keep in touch

And waste a little of your precious time

Waste a little of your precious time A million dollars never justified a million lies

To jockey for position

And if two hearts can't beat as one

How can a million souls survive in this world of suspicion? I heard somebody say, I dream about my wedding day

Through lonely nights I dream of you

A lover though a friend would do

I'd find him if I had the time, precious time But I don't ask much, just to keep in touch

And waste a little of your precious time

Waste a little of your precious time And I don't ask that much, just to keep in touch

And waste a little of your precious time And just a smile's enough, just some of that human stuff

Waste a little of your precious time, precious time
