Play a little kiss and tell with poison pills Bitten in the valley of thirst, the body kills I got an ocean pearl I see an open world (pre-chorus) O...cean pearl! (verse2) You just have to whisper, promising the moon And if she dares to dream, make it true I got an ocean pearl I see an open world (pre-chorus) O...cean pearl! (chorus) It's what I wanted 'cause I'm only gonna do this once Gonna wash me in your water Put the "vive" back in "la difference" yeah (solo) (verse3) I got an ocean pearl And I'd die without my (pre-chorus) O....cean pearl! (outro) I got an ocean pearl I got an ocean pearl I got an ocean pearl I got an ocean pearl I got an ocean pearl
