Soul Mistake

(album: Shabooh Shoobah - 1982)

Promises are carved out of lust
With a fire in the heart
That burns without regret
I vow to play the part

In this meeting of the soul
My feelings are unknown
I learn with no regret
I'm getting what I get

Feel some pain
Though I'm miles away
And ring to let you know
Are you seeing someone
I'd better let you go

She said this was a lesson in love
She said this was a love to end all loves
This soul never listens to me
This soul has a lot to learn

Honesty eludes one and all
Like a gypsy's search for gold
He's dreaming all the time
But the gold is hard to find

Promises are carved out of lust
With a fire in the heart
That burn's with no regret
I'm getting what I get

Made a mistake with myself
My lover couldn't lie
She told me of the things
That made her cry inside

She said this was a lesson in love
She said this was a love to end all loves
This soul never listens to me
This soul has a lot to learn

Having the dreams
of some gypsy
