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 pearl
We do it, oh, we do it

Is love really the tragedy of the way you might describe?
Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside?
Make you cry these tears of pearls

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 pearl, so different and so rare
But anger stole the jewels away, and love has left you bare
Made you cry the 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
That once forgotten, twice removed
Love will be the death
The death of you
(Baby)
C'mon darlin'
Mm, mm, mm, mm, yeah

All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls
Stolen pearl devotions
We keep locked away from all the world
