Seems like a dream in some old, silent movie scene
You come to me like in a mirror held out my hand
Finally I would understand but you slipped away
What did I say? Over the years
Through all the laughter and the tears

Time after time I try to find you
Then in some place, suddenly I will see your face
But when I get near, you disappear
Still I feel you everywhere

Soul child, are you waiting for me to find you?
Soul child, do you belong in my life?
Do I still keep building my world around you?
Dreams of you in my life forever
Soul child, my sweet soul child, my sweet soul child

Right from the start you said that we would never part
If I believed that you really loved me
Sometimes it's true, I didn't think I needed you
But now that you're gone I know I was wrong
Still I feel you everywhere

Soul child, are you waiting for me to find you?
Soul child, do you belong in my life?
Do I still keep building my world around you?
Dreams of you in my life forever
Soul child, my sweet soul child, my sweet soul child
