Return to Songlist

Intro:

They dive down deep / stars in their eyes

Searching for that pristine prize

Locked in a shell, all shiny and round

Some pearls…

 

Verse:

The songs she writes are made to last

But the dream she’s chasing is fading fast

She thought by now she’d be Nashville bound

Some pearls…. are never found

 

Verse:

Pete walks along head hanging down

Awkward and shy through the town

But he’s kind and curious and even profound

Some pearls are never found

 

Chorus:

Some dreams are never realized

Some gifts are never recognized

Unrequited love never makes a sound

Some pearls are never found

 

Bridge:

Pearls though hiding in plain sight

Can still be hard to find

But fates can twist and stars align

When the perfect place meets the perfect time

 

Verse:

Guitar in hand down Music Row

She bumps into the man with his head hung low

He lifts it up, smiles at the girl

And that…..

Is how Pete found Pearl

 

Chorus:
