From the recording Refrain
Lyrics
Pearl of a Girl
I saw you first crouched on the stair
And now I see you everywhere
I tried to read into your mind
But you lost yours and crawled in mine
There’s a battle raging inside you
Room for one occupied by two
And there’s a million things I could say to you
And I might before I’m through
You’re a pearl of a girl
When I look at you I see so much,
Though a touch can kill I’d kill to touch you
Your mind runs circles in my head
All rhyme no reason to what you said
Sometimes I think you see through me
But then you ask me what I see
Well it’s a loaded question, let’s agree
But there’s a time for honesty
You’re a pearl of a girl
I can help you understand if you’ll help me too
Help me see my other side and let your two sides be you
Oh, let’s make one from two
Oh, let’s make one from two
I don’t care what the others say
Take my hand and we’ll run away
To a place where we don’t seem so strange
Where we can make our own arrangements
I know that it’s a giant step
But pull me up and we’ll walk together
There’s a new day that we’ve yet to see
Won’t you come with me?
You’re a pearl of a girl
