Blue Eyed Soul Lyrics
You've got a blue-eyed soul,
And if you don't let it show,
It'll leave you, you won't even know,
Without your blue-eyed soul
Can you keep it simple? Can you let the snare crack?
Can you let it move without holding back?
Are you afraid to let it go,
Without your blue-eyed soul?
You're gonna lose control,
You're gonna lose control,
Without your blue-eyed soul,
Without your blue-eyed soul,
Without your blue-eyed soul
And if you don't let it show,
It'll leave you, you won't even know,
Without your blue-eyed soul
Can you let it move without holding back?
Are you afraid to let it go,
Without your blue-eyed soul?
You're gonna lose control,
Without your blue-eyed soul,
Without your blue-eyed soul,
Without your blue-eyed soul
I think it's about someone who sees something in another that the other can't see... or maybe they can't or aren't aware. If they ever do find out then it could make them go mad. About being left in the dark if ya ask me.
I think this song is about a person trying to hold on to something, or someone, that's not there anymore, and that realization is just too much to bare.
I love the mellow beat in this song, Wilco is a truly incredible band.

I always thought this song was about the break-up of Uncle Tupelo, and the song was written directly to Jay Farrar. I could be wrong.
