Mother Of Pearl - Roxy Music.mp3

[00:03.00]Turn the lights down Way down low
[00:06.52]Turn up the music Hi as fi can go
[00:10.03]All the gang's here Everyone you know
[00:13.42]Its a crazy scene Hey there, just look over your shoulder
[00:19.81]Get the picture?
[00:22.04]No, no, no, no. Yes
[00:29.80]Walk a tightrope Your life sign line
[00:32.98]Such a bright hope Right place, right time
[00:36.23]What's your number? Never you mind
[00:39.48]Take a powder But hang on a minute, what's coming round the corner?
[00:45.97]Have you a future?
[00:48.10]No, no, no, no. Yes
[01:42.96]Well I've been up all night again
[01:46.43]Party time wasting
[01:48.36]It's too much fun
[01:52.63]Then I step back thinking
[01:55.21]Of life's inner meaning
[01:57.94]And my latest fling
[02:02.81]It's the same old story
[02:05.69]All love and glory
[02:07.53]It's a pantomime
[02:12.16]If you're looking for love
[02:14.71]In a looking glass world
[02:16.88]It's pretty hard to find
[02:22.06]Oh Mother of Pearl
[02:24.94]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[02:31.69]Divine intervention
[02:34.05]Always my intention
[02:36.15]So I take my time
[02:41.07]I've been looking for something
[02:43.65]I've always wanted
[02:45.74]But was never mine
[02:50.28]But now I've seen that something
[02:53.08]Just out of reach, glowing
[02:55.17]Very holy grail
[03:00.11]Oh Mother of Pearl
[03:02.95]Lustrous lady of a sacred world
[03:09.63]Thus even Zarathustra
[03:12.47]Another time loser
[03:14.30]Could believe in you
[03:19.00]With every goddess a let down
[03:21.62]Every idol a bring down
[03:24.07]It gets you down
[03:28.49]But the search for perfection
[03:30.82]Your own predilection
[03:33.42]Goes on, and on, and on, and on
[03:38.44]Canadian club love
[03:40.60]A place in the country
[03:42.60]Everyone's ideal
[03:47.16]But you are my favorita
[03:49.92]And a place in your heart, dear
[03:52.45]Makes me feel more real
[03:57.05]Oh Mother of Pearl
[03:59.72]I wouldn't change you for the whole world
[04:06.50]You're highbrow, holy
[04:09.17]With lots of soul
[04:10.66]Melancholy, shimmering
[04:15.62]Serpentine sleekness
[04:18.43]Was always my weakness
[04:20.67]Like a simple tune
[04:25.66]But no dilettante
[04:28.28]Filigree fancy
[04:30.01]Beats the plastic you
[04:35.05]Career girl cover
[04:37.40]Exposed and another
[04:39.38]Slips right into view
[04:44.07]Oh, looking for love
[04:46.19]In a looking glass world
[04:48.43]Is pretty hard for you
[04:53.07]Few throwaway kisses
[04:55.88]The boomerang misses
[04:58.30]Spin round and round
[05:02.45]Fall on featherbed quilted
[05:05.13]Faced with silk
[05:06.48]Softly stuffed, eider down
[05:11.76]Take refuge in pleasure
[05:14.37]Just give me your future
[05:16.27]We'll forget your past
[05:20.87]Oh Mother of Pearl
[05:23.71]Submarine lover in a shrinking world
[05:30.30]Oh lonely dreamer
[05:32.72]Your choker provokes a picture cameo
[05:39.47]Oh Mother of Pearl
[05:42.00]So so semi-precious in your detached world
[05:48.76]Oh Mother of Pearl
[05:51.35]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[05:57.68]Oh Mother of Pearl
[06:00.25]I wouldn't trade you for another girl

[06:09.51]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[06:15.94]Oh Mother of Pearl
[06:18.73]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[06:25.18]Oh Mother of Pearl
[06:25.39]Oh Mother of Pearl
[06:28.51]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[06:28.70]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
[06:35.37]Oh Mother of Pearl
[06:38.23]I wouldn't trade you for another girl
