True love can't be found
Where it truly doesn't exist

True love can't be hidden
Where love truly exist

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Baby, be a simple kind of man.
Oh won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.


Boy, don't you worry.
You'll find yourself.
Follow your heart,
And nothing else.
You can do this,
If you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing

Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope

All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it's taken away

Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost

Come down don't you resist
You have such a delicate wrist

And if I give it a twist
Something to hold when I lose my grip

Will I find something in there
To give me just what I need

Another reason to bleed
One by one hidden up my sleeve


Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste

Weight keeping me down
Will I find a believer

Another one who believes
Another one to deceive

Over and over down on my knees
If I get any closer

And if you open up wide
And if you let me inside

On and on I've got nothing to hide

things that are soft

are my feelings
and
my heart
