Soul Sister - Mary Black

Looking back

Down that long road you have travelled

And I see

All the pain that you have suffered

A young girl walks on ancient sand

Desert flower in her hand

Barefoot on the red heartland

Innocence makes few demands

Heart and soul

My soul sister

Got that special part of me

Such sweet love

And deep devotion

Who would tame what’s wild and free?

Here we are

In this crazy, crazy world

Circumstance

Can lead you on to desperation

Love can save the weary heart

Or it can tear us all apart

I would rather take that chance

Than to never trust again

Heart and soul

My soul sister

Got that special part of me

Such sweet love and deep devotion

Who would tame what’s wild and free?

Looking forward

Down that long road we might travel

And I see

All the joy that is recovered

See the young boy by the river side

He throws a stick to the other side

It carries with the rising tide

Sometimes we might reach too high

Heart and soul

My soul sister

Got that special part of me

Such sweet love and deep devotion

Who would tame what’s wild and free?

Loving heart so wild and free

Who could chance what’s wild and free?
