Lyrics for All About Soul as interpreted by kevin

All About Soul Lyrics
She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silence
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain
And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments
She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain

It's all about soul
It's all about faith and a deeper devotion
It's all about soul
'Cause under the love is a stronger emotion
She's got to be strong
'Cause so many things getting out of control
Should drive her away
So why does she stay?
It's all about soul

She turns to me sometimes and she asks me what I'm dreaming
And I realize I must have gone a million miles away
And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me at that moment
And she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say

It's all about soul
It's all about knowing what someone is feeling
The woman's got soul
The power of love and the power of healing
This life isn't fair
It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold
You've got to get tough, but that ain't enough
It's all about soul

There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness
There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive
She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires
And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive

It's all about soul
It's all about joy that comes out of sorrow
It's all about soul
Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow
You've got to be hard
Hard as the rock in that old rock 'n roll
But that's only part, you know in your heart
It's all about soul

I don't know why no-one has mentioned anything about this song yet....I guess because it's pretty straightforward!! I think it's true - everything is all about soul. And when you know someone well enough to know their thoughts then you know their soul. I love this song.

This has always been the song I listen to when I feel like I need to try to help fix things in one of my guy friends' lives. There's something about the strength of a woman that they'll never be able to name or place but that they'll always somehow need. Kudos for Billy, for figuring out the words to explain the quiet steadiness of the female of the species.

All About Soul refers to the purity of heart and the unwillingness to go down emotionally.

I love this song so much! Billy Joel sends such a great message. It's all about soul.

I always find this song particularly sad, because I think he wrote it for Christie Brinkley, saying how her strengths and soul have made his life complete...

and then she goes off and marries some other guy.
