She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silence
|
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain
|
And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments
|
She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain
|
|
It's all about soul
|
It's all about faith and a deeper devotion
|
It's all about soul
|
'Cause under the love is a stronger emotion
|
She's got to be strong
|
'Cause so many things getting out of control
|
Should drive her away
|
So why does she stay?
|
It's all about soul
|
|
She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I'm dreaming
|
And I realize I must have gone a million miles away
|
And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that moment
|
ANd she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say
|
|
It's all about soul
|
It's all about knowing what someone is feeling
|
The woman's got soul
|
The power of love and the power of healing
|
This life isn't fair
|
It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold
|
You've got to be tough, but that ain't enough
|
It's all about soul
|
|
There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness
|
There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive
|
She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires
|
And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive
|
|
It's all about soul
|
It's all about joy that comes out of sorrow
|
It's all about soul
|
Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow
|
You've got to be hard
|
Hard as the rock in that old rock 'n' roll song
|
But that's only part, you know in your heart
|
It's all about soul
|
