Mother Of Pearl
told love was not for me
i used to play the fool
blind to my own folly
yet in me you saw the jewel
you cared to make me wise
led me to the river
made sure i saw the prize
across the great water
with a dream to fulfil
and a heart to restore
i rowed like a windmill
to reach the other shore
you oversaw the tide
i sought stability
through this purposeful ride
i grew in adversity
looking back i'm aware
each moment every day
you have always been there
with me on the journey
years of battle upstream
out of the days of yore
you are the constant theme
the ever open door
you know how to make me pure
see me through the whirl
orchestrate the cure
o mother of pearl
my all-embracing oyster
take me in your swirl
add another layer
o mother of pearl
