Pearls (Live)

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive

This is how she's dying
She's dying to survive
Don't know what she is made of
I would like to be that brave

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes

There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone

Hmm! Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives in a world she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes

"I love this women"
"I have being such a fan of this woman music since I can remember"
And "Angeligue has done so much"
"To introduce the world, not only to her unique beautiful soul and voice, but also to her charitable efforts with her foundation, Batonger and so many others"
She's done so much "To help the world as well"
And we're over inspired, very honoured that she joined us on tour
And there "She asked me to sing that song too; Pearls, on her new CD called Djin Djin"
That's also extraordinary
And there "You're great, you're a big inspiration to me, we love you, but"
He's great too, Right?
"She's also taking on the new impossible task of trying to teach me to dance back stage, which is"
We have a Ukrainian lady that came all the way from the Ukrainia to see you
Right here?
Right there!
Oh my God "She looks"
Really? Hello! You came along way "Thanks for being here"
Smiles, So "somebody wants a hug here"
Roses are red, violets are blue "I want a hug from only you"
I can never resist the sign, come here!
Josh, you gonna look up to me, then "I'd hook you up"
And Angeligue "Give that girl a hug"
Cheer up one time "For the brilliant Angeligue Kidjo"
