about

This is asking the BIG questions and making a statement that we are not just flesh and blood. It's a realization that I don't have all the answers but there are occasions when we have to operate with self control and not just be victims of circumstance. Life doesn't just happen to us, we have inner power to overcome. It is amazing what people are capable of if we can learn how to apply that inner strength.

lyrics

HEART AND SOUL – Keith Thompson


I used to think we were just flesh and blood; truth was as short as it was long
My ignorance made my sight like mud, now I see I was wrong
I thought I knew it all at 17; I couldn’t take no-ones advice
But if you’re like me you’ll see what I mean
Before we go you’d better think twice

You’ve got to hold on to your self-control
Don’t you see we’re mind, body, spirit, heart and soul

Water ice and steam – its all-just H2O,
And there’s no smoke without fire, and there’s nowhere else you can go
Temptations walking down the street, say what you doing tonight
Sweetest face you ever could meet
But something just aint right

You’ve got to hold on to your self-control
Don’t you see we’re mind, body, spirit, heart and soul

Well thinking too deep may not be your style, and your feeling hard pressed to find a smile
And it seems that there’s no-one who will go with you the extra mile
You can’t touch my body without my permission, you may not be sure of your own condition
There’s more to a human than body and mind
Not just an outward exhibition

You’ve got to hold on to your self-control
Don’t you see we’re mind, body, spirit, heart and soul
