I told him I am like a snail
Slow-moving and with a hard shell
That keeps me from withering
At any sign of harm
He said he disagrees;
I am not a snail but an oyster
That underneath my shell is a perfect pearl
And I would never need to move
For he would always find me.
I wonder if you'll really wait
Wait for me, my darling
One day I'll give you everything.
I wonder if you'll really wait
Wait for me, my darling
One day I'll give you everything.
