  • How come, girl was there
    When I needed one?
    How come, girl was there
    When the song is done?
    Some say, open your eyes
    To a brighter light.
    Okay, opened my heart,
    They were right.

    She was my soul one.
    Oh, she felt she was
    The only one.
    She was the sun,
    Her sky blue eyes,
    She was my soul one.

    Inside, the pain in my heart
    Often made her cry.
    Outside, cursed the birds
    And the sugar skies.
    How long, take to realize
    She's the one?
    How long 'til I find
    My lost and lonely soul one?

    She was my soul one,
    Lord, you know she felt like
    The only one.
    She was the sun,
    Her sky blue eyes,
    She was my soul one.

    Should've never taken the time,
    'Cause I found myself
    Livin' a lonely lie,
    You said you left
    To find yourself,
    But I never,
    No, I never got a chance
    To say goodbye.

    She was my soul one.
    You know, I doubt she was the only one,
    And I thought she was. Writer/s: BRAD SMITH, CHRISTOPHER JOHN THORN, CHRISTOPHER THORN, GLEN GRAHAM, SHANNON HOON, THOMAS ROGERS STEVENS, THOMAS STEVENS
