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
