Soul Rising

YESTERDAY, I WAS OUT IN THE RAIN
WONDERING WHEN I'D SEE THE SUN AGAIN
LONELY HEARTS, BABY, I WROTE THE BOOK
SINCE SHE WALKED AWAY WITHOUT A SECOND LOOK


OH…BUT NOW I FEEL GOOD
COS' YOU LOOK AT ME
THE WAY A WOMAN SHOULD

I FEEL MY SOUL RISING TO A NEW LOVE
NO BLUES I CAN'T RISE ABOVE
I FEEL MY SOUL RISING WHEN I'M CLOSE TO YOU
WHEN YOUR WITH ME GIRL
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN'T DO

YESTERDAY I WAS FALLING APART
PICKING UP PIECES OF MY BROKEN HEART
YEAH…. BUT ONE TOUCH OF YOUR HEALING HAND
24 HOURS LATER I'M A WHOLE NEW MAN

YEAH, AND I'M STRONGER NOW
COS' YOU MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE SOME HOW

I FEEL MY SOUL RISING TO A NEW LOVE
NO BLUES I CAN'T RISE ABOVE
I FEEL MY SOUL RISING WHEN I'M CLOSE TO YOU
WHEN YOUR WITH ME GIRL
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN'T DO

I GOT SUNSHINE ON A BRAND NEW DAY
AND THE GREY CLOUDS HAVE ALL DRIFTED AWAY
AND THERE'S NOBODY THAT I CAN'T BE
IF IT'S YOU AND ME
