All About Soul
She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silenceShe gives me all her tenderness and takes away my painAnd so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her momentsShe still believes in miracles while others cry in vain
It's all about soulIt's all about faith and a deeper devotionIt's all about soul'Cause under the love is a stronger emotionShe's got to be strong'Cause so many things getting out of controlShould drive her awaySo why does she stay?It's all about soul
She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I'm dreamingAnd I realize I must have gone a million miles awayAnd I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that momentANd she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say
It's all about soulIt's all about knowing what someone is feelingThe woman's got soulThe power of love and the power of healingThis life isn't fairIt's gonna get dark, it's gonna get coldYou've got to be tough, but that ain't enoughIt's all about soul
There are people who have lost every trace of human kindnessThere are many who have fallen, there are some who still surviveShe comes to me at night and she tells me her desiresAnd she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive
It's all about soulIt's all about joy that comes out of sorrowIt's all about soulWho's standing now and who's standing tomorrowYou've got to be hardHard as the rock in that old rock 'n' roll songBut that's only part, you know in your heartIt's all about soul
