Soul Of The City
In the soul of the city
People meet out late at night
There's a girl named Wanda
Seems she's she's been working there all her life
It's coming five in the morning
Just before the dawn
A man with whisky in his eyes
Sees her for the beauty that she once was
In the soul of the city
And sometimes she wonders why she ever left home
For these mountains of steel these canyons of stone
Searching for something she had all along
Now she feels lost and alone
In the soul of the city
The working man stops his day
Wanda rolls over to another empty face and then turns away
There's donuts on the pantry shelf
And coffee on the stove
Made yesterday for a traveling man
That said he just had to go
In the soul of the city
And sometimes she wonders why she ever left home
For these mountains of steel these canyons of stone
Searching for something she had all along
Now she feels lost and alone
In the soul of the city
The neon sun comes up
There's a young girl man she's running scared
And running out of luck
In the soul of the city
Now she's getting on a bus
And she's bound for home
From these mountains of steel these canyons of stone
Back to the love that was there all along
She found her heart without losing her soul
In the city...yeah...
oooooooohhhhhhh....
