Souls
Springfield Rick
~
It all started here
She was a girl from the Mid-West
He was a stranger in a strange land
Same old story
He came for the glory
She came looking for a young man's hand
But they found bright lights
And endless nights
And men just used her innocent ways
He found it all so pretty
Hypnotized by the city
They lost sight of the reason
They lost count of the days
And they were two souls searchin' for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searchin' for heaven
Rolling the dice
Lookin' for a seven
To the tick - tick - tickin' of time
Gotta beat the clock
Too many nights on the ledge
He acquired a knife edge
Still the city didn't acquiesce to his demands
Some nights she cried for pitty
In the heart of the city
The city smacked her hands
He met her one endless night
Her eyes had a light
There was something familiar 'bout the smell of her skin
He held her tighter and tighter
As he danced inside her
She knew from the moment that she let him in
They'd been two souls searchin' for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searchin' for heaven
Rolling the dice
Lookin' for a seven
To the tick - tick - tickin' of time
Gotta beat the clock
Beat the clock
Beat the clock
Beat the clock
Yeah, Two souls searchin' for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Yeah
Two souls searchin' for heaven
Rolling the dice
Lookin' for a seven
To the tick - tick - tickin' of time
Gotta beat the clock
Two souls searchin' for each other
One spirit looking for the other
Caught between a hard hard place and a rock
Two souls searchin' for heaven
Rolling the dice
Lookin' for a seven
To the tick - tick - tickin' of time
Gotta beat the clock ~
