Soul Man's Gone
It doesn't get any better does it?
When your heroes go
Time can hide but it can't heal
The sadness that you feel but never show
You never show
Stayed in bed all day again
The weekend goes so fast
Every record that I played
I sang with him and dreamed about the past
And I think we all knew that it was coming
Still it seems so hard and so wrong
Chorus:
Now that the soul mans gone
Now the soul man's gone
Now the soul man's gone gone gone
When your voice is sweet and high
When the beat is true
All this sickness in my heart
It goes away when I'm alone with you
There's a candle burning in my window
But the flame's been down too long
Chorus
Bridge:
Didn't he have everything these young men lack?
And don't we get old just looking back?
It doesn't get any better does it?
When your heroes go
Time can hide but it can't heal
The sadness that you feel but never show
Chorus
