Some time ago my life was gettin out of hands
I thought I'd lose my mind I didn't see a chance
There was no ending to the trouble in my heart
No matter where I looked my world seemed to fall apart
But you were there to hold me up and make me strong
You found a way for you and me to carry on

[Chorus:]
There's a silver lining in the darkest cloud
When I'm down and out I take a look around
All the love and joy you brought to my home
You soothe my soul, baby, you soothe my soul
When there ain't nobody nowhere's left to turn
Still I'm warm and safe 'cause for you I burn
When my life is getting out of control
You soothe my soul, baby, you soothe my soul

Ah ah ah ah, you soothe my soul
Ah ah ah ah, you soothe my soul

Sometimes I struggle and my goals get outta reach
You come to ease my mind and give me energy
You look behind the show of sexy Sarah C.
You know about my fears and insecurities
Joy and pain together, yes, we had it all
Sometimes we fly so high, and yes, sometimes we fall

[Chorus]

Won't back down, I won't back down
Baby I won't back down, I won't back down

Won't back down, I won't back down
When you're with me, I'll stand my ground
I won't back down...
