Cluster of Pearls Songtext
von Hollis Brown

We were young
We were foolish too
Couldn′t wait another year
Watching all those around crawl and fall
We were clusters of pearls


I saw a little girl
And she made me think of you
And if you sold your virtue for his gold
Did you fold, or were you a cluster of pearls

There are things between a woman and her man
In the dark, that make the problems seem small
We're bound by a street car named desire
Desire ain′t no cluster of pearls

I stole what I could from the thieves
I gave more than I could keep
Last I heard they were searching round the world
For the girl called "Cluster of Pearls"
