(Rodney Crowell)
Soul mate I see you down there waiting
For mornin' to softly be comin'
I find I'm only in deeper and you'd be a leaver
If you waren't so scared.
Your true love has made you feel better but look out for later
When she makes you feel worse
Times change in daydreams and flashes
A taste of the past is all I have seen.
But you're supposed to be feeling good now
'Cause everybody said you would
Honey, does it blow your mind
That the prophets would lie.

Soul mate the blues are deceiving
It keeps us believeing we're on the wrong road
One side is just like the other
Except for the color and size of the load.
And just how much it shows.
But you're supposed to be feeling good now
'Cause everybody said you would
Honey, does it blow your mind
That the prophets would lie.
