Precious Time © 2007 Words & Music : B.Ferrier
I wrote this Christmas ‘06 in Bangalow – in my favourite place, on the back porch in the moonlight with a cup of tea.
For many years circumstances had left me estranged from my daughter Rachel.
We were reunited during a magical Christmas ’07 and I dedicate this song to her.

Father don't ignore your children
Give them hopes and give them dreams
Take them fishing, don't just watch it on TV
Precious Time is what they need, Precious Time
Precious Time is what they need,
Mother teach them to imagine
show them love and how to give
every child deserves a sense of family
Precious Time is yours to give, Precious Time
Precious Time is yours to give
Life's a jourrney
and we must make it on our own
but the going ain't so rough when you come from a happy home
How soon a childhood passes
to miss that growing would be too bad
don't trade it for a bigger plasma screen
Precious Time is all we have, Precious Time
Precious Time is all we have
