Lyrics Soul Rising - Joe Cocker

Yesterday I was out in the rain
Wondering when I'd see the sun again
Lonely hearts, I wrote that book
Since she walked away without a second look

Oh, but now I feel good
'Cause you look at me the way a woman should

I feel my soul rising to a new love
No blues I can't rise above
I feel my soul rising when I'm close to you
When you're with me girl
There's nothing I can't do

Yesterday I was falling apart
Picking up pieces of my broken heart
But one touch of your healing hand
24 hours later I'm a whole new man

Yeah, and I'm stronger now
'Cause you make the world a better place somehow

I feel my soul rising to a new love
No blues I can't rise above
I feel my soul rising when I'm close to you
When you're with me girl
There's nothing I can't do

I feel my soul rising to a new love
No blues I can't rise above

I've got sunshine on a brand new day
And the grey clouds have all drifted away
And there's nobody that I can't be
If it's you and me
Yeah, eh-eh

Talk to me

Oh, but now I feel good
'Cause you look at me the way a woman should

I feel my soul rising to a new love
No blues I can't rise above
I feel my soul rising when I'm close to you
When you're with me girl
There's nothing I can't do

I feel my soul rising to a new love
No blues I can't rise above
I feel my soul rising when I'm close to you
When you're with me girl
There's nothing I can't do

Ever baby (soul rising)
Rising above me (soul rising)
Without you my soul (soul rising)
I feel happiness (soul rising)
My soul is rising every day, every minute
