Inspired by that beautiful scene in the boat on the river in Night of the Hunter, You really need to see that again - why not go out and rent the film RIGHT NOW?
lyrics
Come on, Pearly, let's go down
(On the foggy river)
We got a boat and we're leaving this town
My dreams are full of diamonds
My pockets are full of holes
I'm going into hiding just to be more like my soul
You want to get to it, you can't get to it
Come on, Pearly, let's go down
The air is clean and the world is still round
Don't look to me to tell you
What it is we're sailing towards
All I know's it's something
We've never seen before
You want to get to it, you can't get to it
I've got a secret that I'm keeping from myself
And if you find it out, will you promise not to tell?
One thing I've lost is more than every little thing I've found
We'll sleep in the boat tonight and let the current drag us down
Come on Pearly, let's go down
We've got a boat and we're leaving this town ...
