Pearl days

Nothing can shine and show completely
when it’s all covered in dust
as much as time can burn the colors off my
paper photographs
every moment I treasure
I can see and trust
and everyone leaves a tear and a scar and a star
on a map currently tracing in real time
and whether I show it or not
I can’t say it’s not me, I won’t say it’s not mine

and no doubt I’m going to remember all the flames of the fire we’ve got
no doubt I’ll surely remember
I don’t think I’ll need to recall

now if I could, I wouldn’t want to see this sadness falling in, I’d turn away ‘n rise again to find in every single thing
a new source of joy, something to rebuild
a little courage in me, a little something to feel
to add on a map currently tracing in real time, and whether i like or not
I can’t say it’s not me, I won’t say it’s not mine

and no doubt I’m going to remember all the flames of the fire we’ve got
no doubt I’ll surely remember
I don’t think I’ll need to recall
this love spills over nothing that I’ll do but share
cause’ none of us will be forgotten and no one will be left over never never
no doubt I’m going to reemember the flames of this fire we’ve got
these days, and it’s still burning
these days, pearl days
