lyrics

I am empty
moping, barely coping
hoping that love will persevere
I am empty

Like a diamond under glass
like a pearl in the oyster’s grasp
I need Your love, a jewel so fine
but I cannot touch, You are not mine

I seek You always
burning, ever yearning
turning to see if You are near
I seek You always

Like a diamond under glass
like a pearl in the oyster’s grasp
I need your Love, a jewel so fine
but I cannot touch, You are not mine

How long, how long?
will You hide Your face from me?
with sorrow in my heart each day?
how long, how long?

Like a diamond under glass
like a pearl in the oyster’s grasp
I need your Love, a jewel so fine
but I cannot touch, You are not mine
