Dianne Reeves - Old Souls Lyrics

I see them smile through faces of people I don't know
I hear them in the music on my radio
Wisdom of the winds, faces in the clouds
Rhythm of the rains, old mountains standing proud

They prepare me for a special place
Tell me I've no time to waste
Challenge me to face my life's request
Encourage me to do my best
Everywhere I go and everything I see
Flying in the air speaking truth through me

I am a curious spirit child
Who fell to earth through a crack of lightening
But God's so kind and merciful
Sent old souls to guide me home

Yeah, old souls walked this land with dignity and grace
Consecrated earth it was a sacred place
A perfect balance of nature, a gift to all the world
Still I throw away the oyster just to wear the pearl

And in my darkest deep depression
They give counsel to my soul
They open up new meaning
And God's power takes control

I am a curious spirit child
Who fell to earth through a crack of lightening
But God's so kind and merciful
Sent old souls to guide me home

Spirits on the wind
I can feel you in my skin
I, I

Teach me
Guide me
Show me so I fake about me
Oh, I, I

I can see you, I can hear you
Ancient spirits on the blink, oh yeah
Thank You Lord, thank You Lord, You set me free
I sing the love You gave to me, oh oh

I, I, I, I
Hey I, hey hey
