The soul of a man touches something inside of me Something too deep for anyone else to see And the whole world wants to know, why I love him so But I'm afraid, oh they just wouldn't undersand My love for a man is something I can't explain And every tear that I shed, I know it's wasted in vain But there's something I can reveal, that I so deeply feel And it must be, oh it's got to be, the soul of a man
I cried and I cried, 'til I just can't cry no more I know the man don't love me but he won't let me go He controls my heart, my mind, and my soul And he's got the power to make me stay home When I really want to go Soul of a man turns my mind around And takes my helpless heart and turns it upside down And the whole world wants to know why I love him so And it must be oh, it's got to be, the soul of a man
