Sami Yusuf - Pearl

Sami Yusuf - Pearl

From album 'The Centre'

| Song Description |

As an album 'The Centre' takes us through a spiritual journey. 'The Pearl' is at the heart of this journey, the hidden beauty that is revealed once we peel back these layers of self discovery. Lying in darkness at the bottom of a deep ocean, protected by a hard shell, The Pearl is waiting for anyone with the determination and patience to find it.

| Lyrics |

I spent a thousand sleepless nights 

In wait of dreams I could not find 

I walked a thousand empty roads 

In search of signs to bring me home 

With every breath I spoke Your name 

And heard it rolling in the waves 

Beneath a veil of ocean blue 

I broke illusion from the truth 

You said, walk to me and I'll find you 

Call me and I'll show you 

Hiding like a pearl for you 

To heal and guide you 

From deep inside you 

Hiding like a pearl for you 

And from the pulse beneath my skin 

You called me to a source within 

Where every layer revealed one more 

A secret brighter than before 

And at the heart there lay just one 

The root of all that I'd become 

I watched the surface start to break 

Free of form, free of shape. 

You said, walk to me and I'll run to you 

Call me and I'll show you 

Hiding like a pearl for you 

To heal and guide you, 

From deep inside you 

Hiding like a pearl for you.
