Your Soul Today Lyrics

Sleeping on the road that takes you home,
Howling at the moon at midnight.
I want the wrong that sets you right,
I'll be praying at your bedside.
How long i've been a soul in the gutter;
I don't have a home or a mother or anywhere to lay my head down.

Can I visit your arms, Can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart, don't worry your head.
Yeah, if you don't want a soul mate,
I'm your soul today.

Hanging on a rope from a burning tree,
Singing on a broken headstone.
Bleeding from an old wound,
Swimming in the fever,
Waiting for a ressurection.
I know it's a miracle I've lived this long,
I don't want to give the wrong impression,
But I've come so far.

Can I visit your arms, can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise.
Won't burn in your heart, don't worry your head.
Yeah, if you don't want a soul mate,
I'm your soul today.

Sleeping on the road that takes you home,
Howling at the moon at midnight.
I want the wrong that sets you right,
I'll be praying at your bedside.
How long I've been a soul in the gutter ...

Can I visit your arms, can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise.
Won't burn in your heart, don't worry your head.
Yeah, if you don't want a soul mate ...

Can I visit your arms, can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise.
Won't burn in your heart. don't worry your head.
Yeah, if you don't want a soul mate,
I'm your soul today.
Your soul today.

The chorus says it all. The narrator just wants quick love, not a soul mate

This, and "You Know My Name" are easily the best tracks from Carry On. Runner-ups being "She'll Never Be Your Man" and "No Such Thing." The rest is.. eh.. but I really like this song.

oh cmon finally forever, safe and sound, killing birds, poison eye... thats a really good album in my opinion, much MUCH better than euphoria morning

as for this song, i just cant stop listening to it

I agree; this is probably the best song on the album for me. Although I really like the melody on "Killing Birds" and "Arms Around Your Love" also.

this lyrics are great! what a lyrical idea! its like a soul singing to a person! definitely a highlight from an album that has still never truly grown on me like cornell's other albums did.
