Pearl Lyrics by Paula Cole

Pearl Lyrics

    Humility on bleecker street
    Exposed my faults until i'm left defeated
    It's been three years into this relationship
    This is longer than i ever could commit

    But i feel i'm near
    But i feel my fear

    I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
    Gotta face my steppenwolf
    Gotta drag you through the mud
    When i get there i will see myself
    I will look for strength within
    I will be a better woman
    Hang in there baby, i'm the grain of sand
    Becoming the pearl

    There are no roll models in rock 'n' roll
    No women who could have it all
    The long career,the man, the happy family
    And here i stand and god i do demand it

    And i feel i'm near
    But i feel my fear

    I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
    Gotta face my steppenwolf
    Gotta drag you through the mud
    When i get there i will see myself
    I will look for strength within
    I will be a better woman
    Hang in there baby, i'm the grain of sand
    Becoming the pearl

    It's dark in here-don't know who i am
    Memories come-i'm wading through the moon
    Evil side-wants to drag me down
    Will power-god,please give me some
    (i'm hanging onto hope now)

    I'm standing at the edge of another precipice in life
    Baggage from my family
    Going back to therapy
    I will kneel, be humble,tow the weight
    I will look for strength within
    I will be a better woman
    Hang in ther baby, i'm the grain of sand
    Becoming the pearl
