Lyrics for The Pearl Fishermen by All About Eve:
| | | Artist: | All About Eve |
| | Album: | Scarlet And Other Stories | | Track: | The Pearl Fishermen | | | | Date Added: | 24/10/2007 | | Views: | 43 | | | | Lyrics: | The milkmoons dwell in their quiet shells
Where they fell from the heaven
Two pearl
fishermen hold their breath again
Fight to the death again for the same prize
/>
Oh my brother, one of us loses
One must drown and the other she chooses
The jade
of the blue offers diamonds to you
But you find it's not true when the sun sets
/>
You dive far below
Where the sun doesn't go
Where your brother won't know
/>
And you hear her saying:
''Oh my lover, now that you've found me
Now your
brother is bound to be drowned
I don't know why you'd feud over me
All those pearls
lay asleep on the sea bed''
The pearl in his hand
She's just a grain of
sand
She's dressed up as snow
in the moonlight
She's porcelain
/>
on his sallow skin
He's been taken in
by illusion
Oh my brother,
we're both of us losers
I don't know why she ever did choose us
To call one her lover
and bury the other
So I'll hold my breath 'til the story is over | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
