Shining of Your Soul Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the backyard of my soul
There's a tiny little hole
That's where all the trouble goes
Where all the trouble goes

[Verse 2]
In the center of my heart
There's a place that keeps you warm
That's where all my loving goes
Where all my loving goes

[Chorus]
When love has a meaning
A true lovin' feeling
How can I be sure
I can't stop believing
It's more than a feeling
And when you come through the door
I see the shining of your soul

[Verse 3]
In the backyard of my soul
Liеs the answer to it all
It's a long long way to go
Such a long long way to go
[Chorus]
When lovе has a meaning
A true lovin' feeling
How can I be sure
I can't stop believing
It's more than a feeling
And when you come through the door
I see the shining
I see the shining of your soul

[Bridge]
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)

See the shining of your soul
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)
(Shining of your soul)

See the shining of your soul

[Chorus]
When love has a meaning
A true lovin' feeling
How can I be sure
I can't stop believing
It's more than a feeling
And when you come through the door
I see the shining of your soul
[Outro]
You shine, shine, shine
You shine, shine, shine
When you come through the door, oh
I see the shining of your soul
Of your soul

What did Scorpions say about "Shining of Your Soul"?
Genius Answer

Klaus Meine:

There is a reggae kind of feel to some of this, and when it came up, of course it reminded us of “Is There Anybody There?” from the [1979] Lovedrive album. Someone asked me who the reggae guy is in the band, and for sure it’s Rudy who came up with this. The song is very hooky, and it’s one of the very few love songs on the album. Sometimes a person enters a room and you can feel how the atmosphere is changing, you know? It feels like the shining of a soul. That’s what the song is all about.
