A description of the experience
GERRY RAFFERTY feat MARK KNOPFLER - ALL SOULS
Rafferty, Gerry - Another World - All Souls
Oh yeah
yeah yeah all souls (in the wilderness)
yeah yeah all souls
yeah yeah all souls (in the wilderness)
yeah yeah all souls
Well I'm innocent 'til I'm proved guilty,
Yes I'm right 'til I'm proved wrong,
I don't need to prove my innocence,
Sometimes I'm weak, sometimes I'm strong.
Well I can't deny the feeling,
Yes I know, I'm in too deep
The only reason that I'm in this world,
Is to wake up from this sleep.
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls are in need
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls are in need.
In a world of no compassion,
You look around and see this stuff,
Sex, celebrity and fashion,
Sometimes I think I've had enough.
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls are in need
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls are in need.
All souls (in the wilderness)
You like to tell me I'm lost,
You never think twice,
You can't imagine the cost,
You look at me, you don't see that I'm paying the price.
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls that are in need
All souls in the wilderness,
All souls that are in need.
There's a light that shines around you,
You don't see it every day,
Well your life is short, it's by so quick,
And every day is Judgement Day.
All souls….
Yeah yeah all souls (in the wilderness), Yeah yeah all souls
Yeah yeah all souls (in the wilderness), Yeah yeah all souls
Yeah yeah all souls, Yeah yeah all souls
Yeah yeah all souls, Yeah yeah all souls
All souls in the wilderness (in the wilderness)
All souls in the wilderness
All souls in the wilderness
(oh yeah)
