Little Precious Lyrics

Little Precious...

Little precious waits alone
Tears of fear till he gets home
Chilled deep down to the bone
No food, no friends, no telephone

Suddenly he's at the door
Ugly footsteps on the floor
Wondering what he's got in store
What now, what next, what's my life for?

Another night of silent crying
So ashamed she feels like dying

Break these chains of pain
Don't take it any longer
Break these chains of hate
Little precious you are stronger

Off by heart she knows the plan
When he reaches out his hand
He says, girl don't you understand
I love you more than any man
As she sits there on the stairs
Whispering her silent prayers
She sheds a tear and just despairs
Please God no more this just ain't fair

Lives in fear everyday
But she's too scared to run away

Break these chains of pain
Don't take it any longer Break these chains of hate
Little precious you are stronger

Didn't know which way to turn
Isolated from the world
Then once she heard a voice
Telling her she had a choice
A woman talking on TV
Saying "Hey you can be free"
You're not alone no way, get up girl
and break those chains

Break these chains of pain
Don't take it any longer
Break these chains of hate
Little precious you are stronger

Break these chains of pain
Don't take it any longer
Break these chains of hate
Little precious you are stronger

Little Precious you are stronger than you know,
you know you're stronger!
Little Precious you are stronger than you know,
you know you're stronger!
Little Precious you are stronger than you know,
you know you're stronger!
Little Precious you are stronger than you know,
you know you're stronger!
