The nights get colder, around this time of year.
Nothing helps to keep me warm.
The days get older, oh so slowly gone.
When you're far away from home.
Nothing can stop the night from falling.
Nothing can stop me crying out your name.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
And I don't know what I'm gonna do.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
I need your arms around me.
I know you're sleeping,
I know it's only time, till I'm back with you again.
And if you're dreaming, I hope your dreams are mine,
And it will always be the same.
Nothing can stop the night from coming.
Nothing can stop me from crying out your name.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
And I don't know what I'm gonna do.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
I need your arms around me.
I can feel you lying beside me, as I reach across the bed.
I can hear you say, I can hear you say...I love you.
But as I open up my eyes, with your words still in my head,
I know that I'm, I know that I'm alone.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
And I don't know what I'm gonna do.
When I'm miles and miles away from you,
I need your arms around me.
Won't you be my soul boy,
Won't you be my soul.
There's been no one like you,
Trusted and true.
I just wanna be loved by you.
Just wanna be loved by you,
Like a soul boy.
Won't you be my soul boy.
And take me as I am.
I had enough of bad dreams,
And one night stands, baby.
I just wanna be loved by you.
I want to be really loved by you,
Like a soul boy.
Take me as I am boy, hold me while you can.
There's not a woman in the world,
Lovin' you better than I do.
Take me as I am.
Be like a soul boy.
I don't wanna be with no one else
I don't wanna kiss no one else.
I want you to be my soul boy.
No more fighting and no more leaving.
It ain't exciting and I quit believing.
That you're my soul boy, soul boy, soul boy
