Tears of Pearls

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

Oh, 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

Oh, all these mixed emotions

We keep locked away like stolen pearls

Stolen pearl devotions

We keep locked away from all the world

We twist and turn where angels burn

Like fallen soldiers we will learn

Once forgotten, twice removed

Love will be the death

The death of you

Uh baby

Ah come on darling

Ah mmm,mmm

(Come on)

Mmm, hey

(Come on)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

All these mixed emotions

We keep locked away like stolen pearls

Stolen pearl devotions

We keep locked away from all the world

Oh, all these mixed emotions

We keep locked away like stolen pearls

Stolen pearl devotions

We keep locked away from all the world
