Diving for Pearls

She's her mother's daughter 

And he's his father's son

They are dancing 

To the beat of the same drum

They'll leave their houses burning 

As they run towards the sun

They are hoping 

That they are the only ones

And you can find her diving for pearls 

Off the edge of the world

Since he had her cast out of his sea

And you can find her diving for pearls 

Off the edge of the world

Since she found he could not let her be

The world that he sought after 

Would bring him to his knees

He could not see through 

The poison ivy leaves

The only sound as he hit the ground 

And fell down to her feet

Was his desperate cry begging her to try 

Again to set him free

And you can find her diving for pearls 

Off the edge of the world

Since he had her cast out of his sea

And you can find her diving for pearls 

Off the edge of the world

Since she found he could not let her be

She's her mother's daughter and he's his father's son

They are dancing to the beat of the same drum

They'll leave their houses burning as they run towards the sun

They are hoping that they are the only ones
