The most precious things are always in disguise
I reached out and they were gone
A thousand years for just one kiss
For all that's inexcusable
It's tempered all my vanity and glory
You could wait a lifetime for a night like this
And time has become my crucible
It's funny that it takes so long just to realize
So hold me now and watch as the moon does rise
Looking back I always seemed unwise
But time has cut my ego down to size
Like the moonlight in the dawn
Well that's just the way it goes
When we were young, I guess we just didn't know
I want to tell you that I'm sorry
The most precious things are always in disguise
