The Girl, the Pearl
she's waiting for you to see
she's whispering there's another one inside of me
a lonely girl under fire
who needs more than your desire
eyeing her body with pleasure
that's the minute you lost the real in treasure
weave her a blanket of sun beams
its never hard as it seams
sprinkle stars under her feet
don't let her miss a heart beat
she deserves a garden of hearts
not going out for beer and darts
she looks like every woman
but she's one of a kind
she withstood oppression
she conquered depression
seeing the pearl
seeing the girl
is all it takes
...to the girl ....to the pearl
