Lyrics David Bowie

David Bowie

Soul Love

Stone love - she kneels before the grave

A brave son - who gave his life

To save the slogans

That hovers between the headstone and her eyes

For they penetrate her grieving

New love - a boy and girl are talking

New words - that only they can share in

New words - a love so strong it tears their hearts

To sleep - through the fleeting hours of morning

[CHORUS]

Love is careless in its choosing

Sweeping over cross a baby

Love descends on those defenseless

Idiot love will spark the fusion

Inspirations have I none

Just to touch the flaming dove

All I have is my love of love

And love is not loving

Soul love - the priest that tastes the word and

Told of love - and how my God on high is

All love - though reaching up my loneliness

Evolves

By the blindness that surrounds him

[CHORUS]
