Radney Foster Precious Pearl
He left you behind
The same way you left me
Darling, I won't take pride
Or bore you with some victory speech
I didn't come around to try
And pass judgment on you, girl
I'm just back here
Looking for a precious pearl
A precious pearl
That I let slip right through my hands
A precious love
That I have longed for ever since
How'd a treasure so rare
Get left behind somewhere?
I was fool to let my anger blind me, girl
So I'm just back here
Looking for a precious pearl
The good times we once shared
Burned up with our last bridge
And the past can't be repaired
But we might start all over again
So if you could use a old friend
Back here in your world
Darling, I'm just back here
Looking for a precious pearl
A precious pearl
That I let slip right through my hands
A precious love
That I have longed for ever since
How'd a treasure so rare
Get left behind somewhere?
I was fool to let my anger blind me, girl
So I'm just back here
Looking for a precious pearl
Darling, I'm just back here
Looking for a precious pearl
