[What Does My Soul Long For?] [Author: Mari Rabadan]
[Intro ]
Ohhh… yeah…
Mmm, love…
What does my soul… long for?
[Verse 1 – sultry, low voice]
You move in silence, drifting away,
like the sun that hides at the break of day.
Your silence speaks, baby, louder than lies,
it cuts through the dark, straight into my eyes.
You wear that armor, but I see the pain,
in your eyes, boy, nothing’s the same.
Try to disguise it, but I feel the truth,
your soul is reaching, it’s pulling me too.
[Pre-Chorus – vocal build]
And I can feel you, like fire in the rain,
Touching my skin, calling my name.
You’re in the air, you’re in every prayer,
Even when you’re gone, I know you’re there.
[Chorus]
What does my soul long for, if not your touch?
Every piece of me, baby, it needs you so much.
You’re my calm, my faith, and my fight,
The pain I can’t name, but it feels so right.
What does my soul long for, if you’re not here?
Even in my dreams, your voice is clear.
And though I’m breaking, I can’t let go,
I’m still right here, where your love feels like home.
[Verse 2 – hushed, sultry tone]
Walking this road with your love on my skin,
Even when I’m lost, you pull me back in.
Burning flames in the coldest night,
You’re the shadow that owns my fight.
Baby, you’re the air I breathe,
You break me down but you set me free.
I try to run, but I can’t escape,
This love’s a fire I can’t replace.
[Pre-Chorus]
I search for you in the quiet of night,
Your name on my lips keeps holding me tight.
Echoes that haunt me, never fade,
Every beat of my heart spells your name.
[Chorus – fuller instrumentation]
What does my soul long for, if not your touch?
Every piece of me, baby, it needs you so much.
You’re my calm, my faith, and my fight,
The pain I can’t name, but it feels so right.
What does my soul long for, if you’re not here?
Even in my dreams, your voice is clear.
And though I’m breaking, I can’t let go,
I’m still right here, where your love feels like home.
[Bridge – haunting, minimalist beat]
My soul wants yours, bare and true,
No fears, no doubts, just me and you.
A place where love don’t fade away,
Where the night surrenders to the day.
[Final Chorus – powerhouse vocal]
What does my soul long for, if not your touch? (oh, yeah)
Every piece of me, baby, it needs you so much. (so much)
You’re my everything, my voice, my song,
What I don’t understand, but I’ve felt all along.
What does my soul long for, if you’re not near?
Without you, boy, my sky ain’t clear.
And though I’m breaking, I’ll never pretend,
I’ll keep on loving you… until the end.
[Outro ]
Mmm… yeah, yeah…
Ohhh, my soul, my soul…
It longs for you, it longs for you…
Forever…
