Soulin' - Jay Ferguson

We had all been to heaven

But no one really died

We just went and shut the crazy world outside

So we ran in the darkness

'Til the morning light arrived

And we felt ourselves so lucky to be alive

The sirens called us out on the street

The cold wind knocked us down to our knees

All the good times were stolen

On the streets just a soulin', soulin'

Like a stone, we were rollin'

On the streets, just a soulin', soulin'

Out in the night, feelin' just right again

Well, the girl was such a mystery

And the day was never done

We were anticipating what was to come

So if the talk wasn’t easy

At least the feeling was so right

In the deep blue persuasiveness of the night

And if you thought of changin' your mind

Somethin' else was easy to find

All the good times were stolen

On the streets just a soulin', soulin'

Like a stone, we were rollin'

On the streets, just a soulin', soulin'

Out in the night, feelin' just right again

Yeah, yeah, yeah

So the nights kept us runnin'

While the days just kept us down

And the thought of leavin' kept us around
