Lyrics and translation The Jam - Precious - 12" Version / Extended Version
Your
precious
love
- that
means
so
much
Ton
amour
précieux
- qui
signifie
tellement
Will
it
ever
stop
or
will
I
just
lose
touch
S'arrêtera-t-il
un
jour
ou
vais-je
perdre
le
contact
?
What
I
want
to
say
- but
my
words
just
fail
Ce
que
je
veux
dire
- mais
mes
mots
échouent
Is
that
I
need
it
so
I
can′t
help
myself
C'est
que
j'en
ai
besoin,
je
ne
peux
pas
m'en
empêcher
Like
a
hungry
child
- I
just
help
myself
Comme
un
enfant
affamé
- je
me
sers
tout
simplement
And
when
I'm
all
full
up
- I
go
out
to
play
Et
quand
j'ai
le
ventre
plein
- je
vais
jouer
dehors
But
I
don′t
mean
to
bleed
you
dry
Mais
je
ne
veux
pas
te
saigner
à
blanc
Or
take
you
over
for
the
rest
of
your
life
Ou
te
prendre
pour
le
reste
de
ta
vie
It's
just
that
I
need
something
solid
in
mine
C'est
juste
que
j'ai
besoin
de
quelque
chose
de
solide
dans
ma
vie
Lonely
as
the
moors
on
a
winter's
morning
Seul
comme
les
landes
par
un
matin
d'hiver
Quiet
as
the
sea
on
a
good
calm
night
Silencieux
comme
la
mer
par
une
bonne
nuit
calme
In
your
tranquil
shadow
- I
try
and
follow
Dans
ton
ombre
tranquille
- j'essaie
de
te
suivre
I
hear
your
distant
show
clicks
J'entends
tes
clics
de
spectacle
lointains
To
the
midnight
beat
-
Au
rythme
de
minuit
-
I
feel
trapped
in
sorrow
Je
me
sens
pris
au
piège
dans
la
tristesse
In
this
imagery
Dans
cette
imagerie
But
that′s
how
I
am
and
why
I
need
you
so
Mais
c'est
comme
ça
que
je
suis
et
c'est
pourquoi
j'ai
tellement
besoin
de
toi
