## [Hook] Fifty years, and I still see The soul that called out to me Beyond the flesh, beyond the skin Where our forever love begins ## [Verse 1] I remember that first moment When our eyes met cross the room Something deeper than attraction Like a flower came to bloom Not your smile, though it was golden Not your laugh, though it was sweet But the way my spirit trembled When two ancient souls did meet ## [Chorus] This love runs soul deep, soul deep Deeper than the ocean's keep When these bodies fade away What we are will always stay Soul deep, soul deep This is love that angels weep For the beauty that they see In this sacred you and me ## [Verse 2] Through the seasons we've been changing Silver hair where gold once grew Lines that tell our stories, baby But I still see the real you When arthritis slows our dancing When our voices start to strain Still I find you in the darkness Still you ease away my pain ## [Chorus] This love runs soul deep, soul deep Deeper than the ocean's keep When these bodies fade away What we are will always stay Soul deep, soul deep This is love that angels weep For the beauty that they see In this sacred you and me ## [Verse 3] In our dreams we still are twenty Running wild and running free But awake I love you deeper For the man you've grown to be Every scar tells of your courage Every laugh line speaks of joy You're the same soul that I married But so much more than that boy ## [Bridge] They say love is just chemistry Hormones dancing in our brain But they never felt this mystery That no science can explain How I knew you before knowing How I'll love you past goodbye This connection keeps on growing Like a river running wide ## [Verse 4] When I watch you reading, darling Lost inside another world I still get that feeling, baby Like my heart's becoming unfurled Not because you're still so handsome Though you are in every way But because I see the essence That will never fade away ## [Chorus] This love runs soul deep, soul deep Deeper than the ocean's keep When these bodies fade away What we are will always stay Soul deep, soul deep This is love that angels weep For the beauty that they see In this sacred you and me ## [Verse 5] So here's my letter, my beloved Written in this melody Fifty years of soul connection And it's still a mystery How I found my missing piece In this world so big and wide But I know beyond all knowing You're forever by my side ## [Final Chorus] This love runs soul deep, soul deep Deeper than the ocean's keep When these bodies fade away What we are will always stay Soul deep, soul deep This is love that angels weep For the beauty that they see In this sacred you and me Soul deep, soul deep This is love that angels weep ## [Outro Hook] Fifty years, and I still see The soul that called out to me Beyond the flesh, beyond the skin Where our forever love begins Where our forever love begins
