pearl (song)

by india southgate.

 
i want what was lost
a stain where it must have laid
a mark on my ivory palm
i wonder where it is again

wash it away now
a little water clears us

i think i saw it in the sink
dissolving as we must have been 
i grasped at what was left of it
but it marked me in your image
now i see it everywhere

wash it away now
a little water clears us
a little water clears us now
i want you 
i love you
my love for you
wash it away now
