Hunting for pearls

Deep blue diver, with our hopes in your hands
Won’t you take me with you to another land?

Pure sapphire, hiding in the sands
Of the darkest depths ever known to man

Jointly there is nothing we can’t do
What composure and sharp slight of hand
At night I lay awake and hear you call my name

In the strangest lands I will grasp my chance
Sing the unsung words I have searched to spell

And I shackle myself, I risk it all
Bringing us closer to the core
Returning treasures to the shore

And together we take back what is ours
Hunting for pearls at the ocean floor
For us to cherish and adore
Days are hollow
Nights come to my defence
I shut my eyes and focus not to lose her sense
It’s her we follow
She holds the secret spell
I know the place she goes, I wave her farewell

Jointly there is nothing we can’t do
In the strangest lands, I will grasp my chance
Sing the unsung words, I have searched to spell
And I shackle myself, I risk it all
Bringing us closer to the core
Returning treasures to the shore

And together we take back what is ours
Hunting for pearls at the ocean floor
For us to cherish and adore
