Precious Pearl

He left you behind

The same way you left me

Darling, I won't take pride

Or bore you with some victory speech

I didn't come around to try

And pass judgment on you, girl

I'm just back here

Looking for a precious pearl

A precious pearl

That I let slip right through my hands

A precious love

That I have longed for ever since

How'd a treasure so rare

Get left behind somewhere?

I was fool to let my anger blind me, girl

So I'm just back here

Looking for a precious pearl

The good times we once shared

Burned up with our last bridge

And the past can't be repaired

But we might start all over again

So if you could use a old friend

Back here in your world

Darling, I'm just back here

Looking for a precious pearl

A precious pearl

That I let slip right through my hands

A precious love

That I have longed for ever since

How'd a treasure so rare

Get left behind somewhere?

I was fool to let my anger blind me, girl

So I'm just back here

Looking for a precious pearl

Darling, I'm just back here

Looking for a precious pearl
