Lyrics
Clouds are gatherin’
There’s panic in the air
People speak in tongues
Polluting everywhere
Everyday is dawnin’
Like a hurricane on your mind
Can’t seem to focus
The feeling is so unkind
I say time
(Time, time)
Is the healer
(Time on time)
Got to get this time makin’ motion
Got to break on through
Break on through
Faith don’t fade away
I don’t know but I been told
(I don’t know but I been told)
All I need is the Power Of Soul
(All I need is the Power Of Soul)
What’s going on here
With yourself and everything
You say ”how about me now, where do I fit in?”
Sick of runnin’ naked through the belly of the beast
Got too many spirits travelin’ in me
To give me a minute of peace
I say love is the healer
Love on love
Got to get this love making motion
Got to break on through
Break on through
Faith don’t fade away
I don’t know but I been told
(I don’t know but I been told)
All I need is the Power Of Soul
(All I need is the Power Of Soul)
The power of soul is gonna get me high
(The power of soul is gonna get me high)
We’ve got The Power Of Soul tonight
Livin it ain’t easy
Like you’ll never make it through
Like when your heart is broke in pieces
You can’t believe it’s true
Now your standin’ at the crossroads
Singing Bobby Johnson’s blues
How you gonna deal with it
What you gonna do
(Well I said life)
Life is the healer
(Life on life)
Got to get this life making motion
Got to break on through
Break on through
Faith don’t fade away
I don’t know but I been told
(I don’t know but I been told)
All I need is the Power Of Soul
(All I need is the Power Of Soul)
The power of soul is gonna get me high
(The power of soul is gonna get me high)
We’ve got The Power Of Soul tonight
(We’ve got The Power Of Soul tonight)
I don’t know but I been told
(I don’t know but I been told)
All I need is the Power Of Soul
(All I need is the Power Of Soul)
The power of soul gonna get me high
(The power of soul gonna get me high)
We’ve got The Power Of Soul tonight
(We’ve got The Power Of Soul tonight)
I said time
(Time, time)
Is the healer
I got to break on through
Break on through
I said love
(love, love)
Is the healer
I got to testify
(All I need is the Power Of Soul)
I said life
(life, life)
Is the healer
Got to heat it up
Heat it up
