Marc Almond - The Very Last Pearl

================================



(Almond)

Somewhere deep in the scarlet city

A million dreams are not enough

I'm knee deep in fallen women

Being alone in the scarlet city

Can be tough



Call me romantic

Call me deluded



I'd give you anything you asked

Just for a second of your time

I could be your guardian angel

When it comes to pleasure

I could be your guide



Call me romantic

Call me deluded



Well I've seen the sights of New York

I've seen day become night

I've seen the Brooklyn Bridge

All covered in lights

I've dived to the depths

I've scaled the heights



Call me romantic

Call me deluded

I've had it all



Chorus



But I'll give you the most valuable thing in the world

I'll give you my very last pearl

I'll give you the most magical thing in the world

I'll give you my very last pearl



For this could be the magic

This could be the magic

This could be the magic

The very last pearl

Make a wish on the

Very last pearl in the world

The very last pearl



Somewhere deep in the scarlet city

Waits the key to all my dreams

You're the cure for someone jaded

Someone jaded, someone just like me it seems



Call me romantic

Call me deluded

I want to be your angel

I want to be your angel

Call me romantic

Call me deluded



I've seen a Mediterranean night

The ships on the sea

The most beautiful eyes in the world

And the saddest eyes in the world



Call me romantic

Call me deluded

But I didn't care at all



Repeat chorus
