hunting for pearls - iamamiwhoami, ionnalee

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 on the ocean floor

For us to cherish and adore

Days are hollow, nights come to my defense

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 on the ocean floor

For us to cherish and adore

Hunting for pearls on the ocean floor
