[00:00.00] The Pearl - Judee Sill
[00:05.92] I've been lookin' for someone
[00:07.73] Who sells truth by the pound
[00:10.76] Then I saw the dealer and his friend
[00:13.07] Arrive, but their gifts looked grim,
[00:17.25] Now I'm tired of hanging on,
[00:19.51] Waitin' for a showdown
[00:22.38] Don't y'see I gotta ride 'em out
[00:24.87] Cuz the pearl's just around the bend
[00:28.49] Beautiful pearl, o when will you reappear?
[00:33.94] Mysteries unfurl and become so clear,
[00:37.81] When I feel you near...
[00:41.82] I found a way outside myself
[00:43.88] To make my spirit climb,
[00:46.87] And I coulda shinnied on up
[00:49.12] But my rope was made of wind
[00:53.49] I appreciate the words,
[00:55.48] But I won't be there at showtime
[00:58.73] Don't y'see I gotta ride them out
[01:01.64] Cuz the pearl's just around the bend
[01:05.07] Beautiful pearl,
[01:07.88] O when will you reappear?
[01:10.19] Mysteries unfurl and become so clear,
[01:14.32] When I feel you near...
[01:18.32] When my backyard weeds grew high,
[01:20.62] I hoped that they would hide me,
[01:23.37] But I felt that the pearl was near
[01:25.62] Cuz I thought I saw it shine,
[01:29.86] I was lookin' all around
[01:31.86] When I felt it there inside me
[01:35.05] And I see a possibility
[01:36.68] That its been there all the time...
