All About Soul
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel; Anders Holst



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 
But that's only part, you know in your heart 
It's all about soul
