The Folk Implosion - Pearl lyrics

Pearl, listen to me now I'm about to bring it down Here are things I need to tell you That can't wait I've been doubting in my sleep There are secrets I keep Maybe in the end I'll find a way to stay Pearl, it don't feel that way today It wasn't long ago, I was down upon my knees Begging you to change your mind again You were tired of trying to love me You had put yourself above me Tried to leave but, Pearl, I don't let go That is until tonight, now I know There's a world outside our window There's the mystery of desire I could wait to make you happen I could set this house on fire Listen, now I'm about to bring it down Are we meant to be, I'll ask again As I wait for your reply Hear the traffic pa**ing by Tomorrow I'll be far away from here Pearl, I'll be far away from here Through the world outside my window Though you're all that I desire I couldn't make you happen So I set this house on fire
