Lyrics of Pearls by Angélique Kidjo,Carlos Santana,Josh Groban

verse

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive

verse

This is how she's dying
She's dying to survive
Don't know what she is made of
I would like to be that brave

chorus

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
And it hurts like brand new shoes

verse

There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone

verse

Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

verse

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

chorus

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
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Writer(s): Helen Adu, Andrew Hale
