Cris Williamson, "Song of the Soul"


Love of my life I am crying
I am not dying, I am dancing
Dancing along in the madness
There is no sadness
Only the song of the soul

cho: And we'll sing this song
Why don't you sing along
Then we can sing for a long, long time
Why don't you sing this song
Then we can sing along
Then we can sing for a long, long time

What do you do for a living
Are you forgiving, giving shelter
Follow your heart, love will find you
Truth will unbind you
Seek out a song of the soul

Come to your life like a warrior
Nothing will bore yer, you can be happy
Let in the light, it will heal you
And you can feel you
Sing out a song of the soul

Love of my life I am crying
I am not dying, I am dancing
Dancing along in the madness
There is no sadness
Only the song of the soul

Background:
This is - heh! - old school womyn's music. As a child, isolated in a home full of anger, it was music such as this that got me through many a bad night. I had..I think 3 8-track tapes of music by Cris and Holly, and maybe some Tret Fure as well. Long before Melissa Etheridge roared onto the music scene, we had the voices of these ladies to sing along with.
