Tears Of Pearls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And we stare each other down
Like victimes in the grind
Probing all the weakness and hurt
Still left behind and we cry
The tears of pearls
We do it. Oh we do it.
Is love really the tragedy?
The way you might describe
Or would a thousand lovers
Still leave you cold inside?
Make you cry...
These tears of pearls
Chorus:
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away
Like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
Your kisses are like pearls,
so different and so rare
But anger stole the jewels away
And love has left you bare,
Made you cry...
These tears of pearls
Well I could be the tired joker
Pour my heart to get you in
Sacrifice my happiness
Just so I could win
Maybe cry...
These tears of pearls
Chorus:
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
Bridge:
We twist and turn where angels burn
Like fallen soldiers, we will learn
That once forgotten, twice removed
Love will be the death,
the death of you...
Baby!
C'mon darlin'
Mm, mm, mm, mm... Yeah....
Chorus:
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
All these mixed emotions
We keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
