I was a fool
i told a lie
i did you wrong
i made you cry
so now i'm walking all alone
down the darkest street in town
standing in the rain
while my tears keep falling down
i'm soul searching
how could i say goodbye to you?
i'm soul searching
i made you cry
how could i leave
somebody like you
how could i do all the silly things
that i do
wht makes me try the way i do
act a fool the way i do
i need you so bad baby
won't you come back to me?
i'm soul searching
but nobody like my baby
i keep soul searching
it's driving me crazy
why
did i ever say goodbye
i must be outta my mind
i keep walking and looking for a sign
i gotta be crazy baby
to ever let you go
i keep looking for a sign
oh why
do i get all the bad breaks
how could i make
such stupid mistakes
but the truth won't come to me
no matter how i wreck my brain
the rain keeps falling down
and i keep calling out your name
i'm soul searching
Solomon Burke (1940-2010) è stato un leggendario cantante e musicista americano di soul e rhythm and blues. Nato James Solomon McDonald a Fort Smith, Arkansas, ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale all'età di 15 anni, cantando in chiesa e poi in locali notturni del sud degli Stati Uniti. Nel 1960, con il nome d'arte Solomon Burke, ha firmato un contratto discografico con la Atlantic Records e ha raggiunto il successo internazionale con brani come "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love", "Cry to Me" e "Just Out of Reach (Of My Two Hands)".

Burke ha collaborato con numerosi musicisti leggendari, tra cui Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin e Wilson Pickett. Ha vinto un Grammy Award nel 1967 per la sua interpretazione di "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love" e ha continuato a registrare musica fino alla fine della sua carriera.
