I Have A Woman Inside My Soul
I have a woman inside my soul
Her eyes somber and sad
She waves her hand
To try to reach me
But I don’t know what she says

I wish I knew what she says
I wish I knew what she wants
I wish I knew what she says to me
I wish I knew what she means to me

I see an asphalt road inside my soul
It’s pale even in a warm summer’s day
It stretches into the mist and calls me
But I don’t know what it takes

I wish I knew what it takes
I wish I knew what it gives
I wish I knew what it says to me
I wish I knew what it means to me

I feel a snow covering inside my soul
It’s hard shining in shades of grey
No footsteps ever made their marks
And I don’t know when it melts
I wish I knew when it melts (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew when it happens (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew if it happens at all (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew what it means to me (I wish I knew)

I hear a stream running inside my soul
It’s cold and clear and it carries a tune
But I don’t know what it sings and tell me
I don’t know where it goes

I wish I knew what it sings (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew where it goes (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew what it sings (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew where it goes (I wish I knew)
