The Mission UK - From the Oyster Comes the Pearl lyrics

I remember the first time I laid eyes on you Early morning And the forest hotel and all the things we've been through New day dawning You were such a timid child so shamefully shy And full of dormant pain Dulled by wind and rain You kissed me like a wounded sigh I'll love you 'til the day I die And as the bu*terfly is born from the cocoon And as a raindrop becomes a monsoon And as the woman was once just a girl Waiting to unfurl From the oister comes the pearl I remember how you used to hide behind me Muted light How good to see you now all the things you can be Burning bright You were such a damaged child too many broken dreams A sun eclipsed by the moon A black and white cartoon From a whisper to a scream Like a diamond in the gleam And as the rapture becomes finally a swoon And as an ocean breeze becomes a typhoon And as the woman was once just a girl Waiting to unfurl From the oister comes the pearl
