David Bowie
Soul Love (Live 1978)
[Verse 1]
Stone love, she kneels before the grave
A brave son who gave his life
To save the slogans
That hovers between the headstone and her eyes
For they penetrate her grieving
New love, a boy and girl are talking
New words that only they can share in
New words, a love so strong it breaks their hearts
To sleep through the fleeting hours of morning

[Chorus]
Love is careless in its choosing
Sweeping over cross a baby
Love descends on those defenseless
Idiot love will cause confusion
Inspirations have I none
Just to touch the flaming dove
All I have is my love of love
And love is not loving

{​Bridge}​

[Verse 2]
Soul love, the priest that tastes the word and
Told of love and how my God on high is
All love though reaching up my loneliness
Evolves by the blindness that surrounds him
[Chorus]
Love is careless in its choosing
Sweeping over cross a baby
Love descends on those defenseless
Idiot love will cause confusion
Inspirations have I none
Just to touch the flaming dove
All I have is my love of love
And love is not loving

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Soul love, soul love
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Soul love, soul love
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Soul love
