Hey, Soul Sister by Train was inspired by the pop and folk influences and the beauty of the ukulele strings. Lead singer Pat Monahan was inspired by a music demo he heard while in the studio and decided to create a track that captured that light, joyful essence. The lyrics talk about deep love and admiration, using the image of a soul sister as a metaphor for that special connection.
CGAmF Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains CGAmFG I knew I wouldn't forget you and so I went and let you blow my mind CGAmF Your sweet moonbeam the smell of you in every single dream I dream CGAmFG I knew when we collided you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind
