And we stare each other down
|
Like victims 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]
|
|
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
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
