Soul of the Man Songtext

von Fontella Bass

The soul of the man
Touches something inside of me
Something too deep
For anyone else to see

And the whole world wants to know
Why I love him so
But I'm afraid
They just wouldn't understand

My love for a man
Is something I can't explain
And every tear I shed
I know it's wasted in vain
But there's something I can't reveal
That I so deeply feel
Oh it must be
It's gotta be
The soul of the man

I cried and I cried
'till I just can't cry no more

I know the man don't love me
But he won't let me go
He controls my heart
My mind and my soul
And he's got the power
To make me stay
When I really wanna go

The soul of a man
Turns my mind around
Takes my helpless heart
And turn it upside down

And the whole world wants to know
Why I love him so
Oh it must be
Oh it must be
The soul of a man
