Lyrics and music by Catherine
Scholz, 2008
So you've added up the figures.
And counted all the costs.
But a shade of memory lingers
As the dew becomes the frost.
A love of no undoing
Has caught you in its web.
Would you like to keep on crashing
Or brave the waves instead?
You're a pearl
I'll meet you by the ocean
You're a pearl
I'll be standing by the sea
You're a pearl
I will meet you by the ocean
You're a pearl.
Meet me in D.C.
It's time to make some choices
Pick your heart up from the floor.
Put the sordid past behind you
Chase those ghosts back from your door.
You're a pearl
I'll meet you by the ocean
You're a pearl
I'll be standing by the sea
You're a pearl
I will meet you by the ocean
You're a pearl.
Meet me in D.C.
