Lyrics
MUSIC IN MY SOUL
They said it was a holiday, but I wasn't having fun -
My mind had drifted off again
To where we used to run.
Certain streets bring memories I'd rather not recall
I'd rather sing all the music in my soul
I'd rather sing all the music in my soul.
CHORUS
Everybody has some music in their soul
It drives you when you're younger
And calms you when you're old.
New York City wintertime,
The streets are cold and gray -
I wish somebody needed me each and every day.
But when someone finally notices,
I can't find words to say
I've got to sing all the music in my soul
I've got to sing all the music in my soul.
CHORUS
Well, I think I know how hard it is
To catch a falling dream
And I'm learning that the choices made
Aren't always what they seem.
I'm finding that the hardest part
Is learning to believe
I've got to sing all the music in my soul
I've got to sing all the music in my soul.
CHORUS
