Pearls
Lyricist:Sade Adu, Andrew Hale
There is a woman in Somalia Scraping for pearls by the roadside There is a force stronger than nature Keeps her will alive
That is how she lives her life She is dying to survive I don't know what she's made of I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heavens above There's a stone in my heart She lives a life she didn't choose And it hurts like brand new shoes Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes And it hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Rwanda The sun shows her no mercy The same sky we lay under It burns her to the bone
Long is afternoon shadows Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It's gonna take her to get home Each gray carefully wrapped up Pearls for her little girl Hallelujah, Hallelujah
She cries to the heavens above There's a stone in my heart She lives a life she didn't choose And it hurts like brand new shoes Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes And it hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Somalia There is a woman in Rwanda There is a woman in Tibet There is a woman in a Congo And she hurts like brand new shoes
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
