Precious child
Ask me why and you'll believe me
Precious child
The wind that has gone inside is bleeding
As time goes by, I'll watch you grow
Yeah, the change of seasons as the wind blows
Trials of teaching call, what I know
Oh, the rivers of doubt begin to flow

Precious child
I don't know why I deserve you
Precious child
I want to lift my soul up to you

Dawn has come
Here in October
Wouldn't you know?
Dawn has come
Yes, and the rivers of blood begin to flow
As time goes by, I'll watch you grow
Yeah, the change of seasons as the wind blows
The trials of teaching oh, what I know
All the rivers of love begin to flow
No, no, no, no, no, no

Precious child
I don't know why I deserve you
Precious child
I want to lift my soul up to you
Precious child
I don't know why I deserve you
Precious child
I want to lift for my soul up to you

Precious child
Ask me why and you'll believe me
Precious child
The wind that has gone inside is bleeding
As time goes by, I'll watch you grow
Oh, the change of seasons as the wind blows
Trials of teaching oh, what I know
Oh, the rivers of love begin to flow

Precious child
I don't know why I deserve you
Precious child
I want to lift my soul up to you
Precious child
I don't know why I deserve you
Precious child
I want to lift for my soul up to you
