The Pearl

Carola

If eyes could tell a story,
if looks could write a tale,
then yours would keep on telling me
about a love that will never fail.
The days I walked in worry,
the nights I spent in tears,
now they all seem so far away.
You've made the dark clouds disappear.
I was lost in a cold and lonely world,
until I found you.

You are a pearl I set out to find,
a hidden jewel of a different kind.
You are more precious than gold,
more valuable than diamonds.
You are a treasure buried in the ground,
that I won't trade whatever comes around.
I'm glad I searched until I found the pearl.

I've cried upon your shoulder.
You've been a helping hand,
and I know in times of need
in you I could depend.
But you're more than just a brother.
You're more than just a friend.
You're all I ever longed for.
I know you're from heaven sent.
I was lost in a cold and weary place,
until I found you.

You are a pearl I set out to find,
a hidden jewel of a different kind.
You are more precious than gold,
more valuable than diamonds.
You are a treasure buried in the ground,
that I won't trade whatever comes around.
I'm glad I searched until I found the pearl.

Without your love I'll be
a thousand miles from home,
like a ship searching for a shore,
but I know your light will 
guide me.

You are a pearl I set out to find,
a hidden jewel of a different kind.
You are more precious than gold,
more valuable than diamonds.
You are a treasure buried in the ground,
that I won't trade whatever comes around.
I'm glad I searched until I found the pearl.
