Текст песни Pearls, Sade

there is a woman in somalia
scraping for pearls on the roadside
there s a force stronger than nature
keeps her will alive
this is how she s dying
she s dying to survive
don t know what she s made of
i would like to be that brave

she cries to the heaven above
there is a stone in my heart
she lives a life she didn t choose
and it hurts like brand-new shoes

hurts like brand-new shoes

there is a woman in somalia
the sun gives her no mercy
the same sky we lay under
burns her to the bone
long as afternoon shadows
it s gonna take her to get home
each grain carefully wrapped up
pearls for her little girl

hallelujah
hallelujah

she cries to the heaven above
there is a stone in my heart
she lives in a world she didn t choose
and it hurts like brand-new shoes
hurts like brand-new shoes
