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      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...      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      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      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
