"Soul Time" lyrics - JOE COCKER

I feel life passing me by a little more each day
We don't act out our love in that old sweet and simple way
The world's got problems, baby, we've got problems too
Why don't we work together and see what we can do?

Take a little soul time, say what's weighing on our minds
Take a little soul time, there's no telling what we'll find
Let's love life and live it, stop fighting and crying
Start hanging together and reaching and trying
This time, take a little soul time

There's still a place we can go inside you and me
To change our life as it is, into life as it should be
Unseen angels, baby, answer if we call
All our hopes and dreams, they won't let us fall

Take a little soul time, say what's weighing on our minds
Just take a little soul time, there's no telling what we'll find
Let's love life and live it, stop fighting and crying
Start hanging together and reaching and trying
This time, take a little soul time

Oh babe, we could be so fine, so fine
If we just lay it on the line this time, yeah

Take a little soul time, say what's weighing on our minds
Take a little soul time, there's no telling what we'll find
Let's love life and live it, stop fighting and crying
Start hanging together and reaching and trying
This time, take a little soul time, oh girl

Do you hear me, woman? Take a little soul time
Oh baby, if we take a little soul time, yeah
And I know, just take a little soul time
