Precious Cargo - Barbara Dickson, Paul Young

Precious cargo, this is as far as the boat can go

It’s a secret destination far below

Say goodbye now, you’ll never know how much we lied for you

Took you deep inside your bed

And leave you there as if we care

This baby never sleeps

No this baby never sleeps

It lies in the dark with one eye open

Watching the world go down

Oh, this precious cargo

Oh, is gonna lie here forever

'Till you pay this precious cargo

Is gonna cost you forever and ever and ever

Tell your daughter look underwater for your legacy

For the power and the glory couldn’t see mortality

This baby never sleeps

No, this baby never sleeps

It lies in the dark with one eye open

Watching the world go down

What is it worth to be lord of the Earth when you love

The child we created has grown to regain it’s own birth

This baby never sleeps

No, this baby never sleeps

It lies in the dark with one eye open

Watching the world (watching the world)

So precious

So precious

(TO FADE)
