Soul to Keep (For Phyllis)

Soul to Keep (For Phyllis)

7 Seconds
(album: Take It Back, Take It On, Take It Over!)

i woke up from a dream, i could´ve sworn i heard the ´phone
fan´s blowing in the corner like it does when she´s at home
familiar desperate feeling, always cold and dark inside
i´ll probably sit here hoping soon that she´ll be by my side.

yeah, i saw her smile that chased the blues away, her warmth will make it all okay
´cause it´s one to go and one to stay, i guess it has to be that way
i found my kindred spirit, now she´s with me as i sleep
and it´s in her hands, up to her where she´ll put my soul to keep.

out there in the hard world trying to blend into the day
a thousand different faces stare, i try to look away well, i
can feel her move within me and her voice is in my head
and with that in mind i seem to find a way back home again
