Lyrics David Bowie – Soul Love
Text:
Stone love — she kneels before the grave
A brave son — who gave his life
to save the slogans
That hovers between the headstone and her eyes
For they penetrate her grieving
New love — a boy and girl are talking
New words — that only they can share in
New words — a love so strong it tears their hearts
To sleep — through the fleeting hours of morning
CHORUS
Love is careless in its choosing
Sweeping over cross a baby
Love descends on those defenceless
Idiot love will spark the fusion
Inspirations have I none
Just to touch the flaming dove
All I have is my love of love
And love is not loving
Soul love — the priest that tastes the word and
Told of love — and how my God on high is
All love — though reaching up my loneliness
evolves
By the blindness that surrounds him
CHORUS
