WISHBONE ASH - Mother of Pearl lyrics

rate me

Underworldthe queen of pearls

Catches the light that's in your eyes.

She has desiresand has to get higher

Trying to love the whole world.

Mother of pearl

She's a charity girl

Giving herself away

To some body and soul.

Paradise if you pay the price

Inlaid with love she satisfies.

She has to pray alone everyday

Lying in wait for the whole wide world.

Mother of pearl

She's a charity girl

Giving herself away

To some body and soul.

Black see-through

Dressed to kill and cast her spell

Sequins of fire for her love's desire

She's drifting away from her open shell.

Mother of pearl

She's a charity girl

Giving herself away

To some body and soul.
