Nothing More Letra

My friend I know you've suffered, Although you are still young. Why was it you who'd not take help From anyone? Oh it's true, it's very true, he said, Some hard times i have known, But i have always overcome them On my own. Oh the pearls that you hold in your hand They are beautiful to see, But you show them not to anyone, Not even me. For you are like the others, he said. I never can be sure That you wish just to see the pearls And nothing more. Why can you not see reason? Our lives they are not long. Why can you take no time To tell us all we're wrong? My tune it does not change, he said, And neither does your song, And words I use them rarely When I'm all alone.
