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
Why does she stay?
It's all about soul

She turns to me sometimes
And she 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 at 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 get tough,
But that ain't enough
You got to have soul

There are people who have lost
Every trace of human kindness
There are many who have fallen
There are some who still survive
And 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?

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
