I used to sit around and wait, ask if I’d find my soulmate
I think that I may have touched her when I went to her place
She reminds me of myself and all that I used to be
I thank my stars, my luck, and my God she found me
But now the questions that I ask are not my own to speak back to
So I have to ask you, I need to ask you
If I went out to California,
would you wait for me,
you know I’d wait for ya.
Soul lover, would you
take just one more year for me
to recover your love?
My life is calling me away and you know I can’t stay,
But I’ll see you in my mind’s eye each and every day.
And if you need proof I’m yours I’ll give you this,
I’d already drive hours just for your kiss
And now asking what I need to know isn’t going to be
an easy thing for me to do
But I have to ask you, I need to ask you
If I went out to California,
would you wait for me,
you know I’d wait for ya.
Soul lover, would you
take just one more year for me
to recover your love?
