Experience Pearls Lyrics
Give me all your tears
Let me turn them into pearls
Let me turn all the tears that you've cried onto pearls
Hand them to me
I'm gonna keep, keep them for you
I want to hold you.
I want to kiss you.
I want to mend what is broken
Love me the way you loved her - please
Cause now I'm giving it all -
[ Chorus ]
And so I've made up my mind
I'm gonna be yours this time
I'm gonna give what I've got
And get your love in return
And so I've made up my mind
I'm gonna be yours this time
I'm gonna teach you to trust
And learn how to burn,
Experience pearls
Pearls of experience
When sand strikes up in your eyes
I will cover your face
I'll plant your desert with roses
And I'm gonna keep, keep them for you
[ Chorus ]
I'll wear yours pearls more precious than silver
I'll wear your pearls so close to my skin
I'd tear myself apart just to get you -
And so I've made up my mind....
And so I've made up my mind....
This music sounds very cinematic, a dramatic departure from their usual europop fare. The way I interpret this song, is loving someone so strongly you want to turn their miserable life around at any cost. This person is all you want, all you ever think of, and they are living a rough/unhappy existence, cold and bruised. You would give them the moon for a smile.
As I understand, this songs is about a relationship between two people with a significative age difference. I think the word "experience" is about the "age experience". Then, some sentences confirm to me like when they change the words "experience pearls" for "pearls of experience" as you value their life experience, for example. Maybe this is because I'm in love with an older woman :) But definitely I love this song, I will dedicate to very special person I still don't know.
