If I leave my front door open
would u come and visit me? Just 2 slander my name hopin' that I would pack my bags and leave... If I did would u remember 2 feed the dove and clean the cage? And never count in front of the children lest they die of old age I don't really know y we have 2 go r separate ways Whether or not we grow after the seeds r shown Only time can say... Can I offer u baklava? or a bagel with cream cheese? Will we say grace 2 r father holding hands down on r knees? R we better off just fighting? U on ur side, me on mine R the words that I keep writing... only pearls b4 the swine? What makes men claim that u're a friend when u're not at all? They knock u down and then, they lift u up again, just 2 c u fall... But like a bird I'll keep on singing... a song that never leaves ur mind If nothing else u've taught me one thing... "Never cast ur pearls b4 the swine" The Normal Whores Club | |

You'll find a more accurate transcription of the lyrics sung on One Nite Alone at:
http://www.dtt-lyrics.com...tml#pearls I'm unaware of any definitive and authorittive explanation of the inspiration for the lyrics. As with most Prince songs, people have been left to speculate, and I've read various theories. ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. | |
