Righteous Brothers, The - (You're My) Soul And Inspiration Lyrics






Girl, I can't let you do this
Let you walk away
Girl, how can I live through this?
When you're all I wake up for each day baby

You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby what good am I?

I never had much going
But at least I had you
How can you walk out knowing
I ain't got nothing left if you do, baby

You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby what good am I?
Oh, what good am I?

Baby, I can't make it without you
And I'm, I'm telling you honey
You're my reason for laughing, for crying
For living and for dying

Baby, I can't make it without you
Please, I'm begging you baby
If you go it will kill me, I swear it
Girl, I just can't bear it

You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby what good am I?
What good am I?

Righteous Brothers, The (You're My) Soul And Inspiration Comments
  1. L.... ....

    Fantastic beat ballad. At the time I was carrying a torch for a girl who'd given me up some time earlier, lyrics seemed so appropriate.

  2. c.... ....

    Their voices were thunder and lightning. Perfect duo

  3. m.... ....

    The (new) Righteous Brothers played locally and I thought about going, but it's just not the same without Bobby Hatfield. I'm sorry but Bucky doesn't cut it for me.

  4. j.... a....

    Just got back from Las Vegas where l saw these guys with Bucky Heard in place of the late Bobby Hatfield spot the difference l couldn't they may be long in the tooth but they were great

  5. C.... T....

    Blue eyed soul. My one of my dad's favorites.

  6. E.... S....

    60 dislikes must be a moron if u don't like this music something wrong with u

  7. G.... R....

    Bill Medley, what a voice, just WOW!!

  8. b.... b....

    I met Bill at The Hop in Lakewood California, apparently these guys owned the nightclubs,and he had just become a father of a beautiful little girl, they named her Mackenzie, I congratulated him and went off to dance the night away, super cool dude, The Righteous Brothers are soul personified.

  9. L.... R....

    Truly melodious song compared to "Unchained Melody".
    The song "Soul and Inspiration" defines the word itself. Ab"soul"utely, beautiful music.

  10. f.... ....

    I would like to thank my dad for introducing me to great music, including the Righteous Brothers, when I was a kid.

  17. T.... C....

    Magical.... spiritual.... amazing... brilliant.... easily one of the greatest pop songs of all time.....

  18. l.... ....

    Here's another fun fat about them. They made History by being on the very first Cover f Tiger Beat which is now the longest running Teen Magazine in the US that outlived many I grew up on . Teen Beat Superteen 16 and it's Sister Magazine Tattletales. It's Co-Owner was Lloyd Thaxton who hosted a Rock & Roll Show that Ben E. King, Marvin Gaye, and The Four Tops appeared on who were one of many.

He served in Vietnam and he's really sick. Hoping he can hold on. Love you dad.

    Love the intro, the lyrics and the ending and the harmonies. It was absolutely no surprise that this an AMerican No.1 and the 3rd best selling single of 1966 in the USA. Blue eyed soul at its very best.

  39. D.... W....

    Honestly thought these guys were black for years until I seen the video.
    Blue eyed soul.

  40. M.... S....

    When having class was righteous and being a boss was unspoken but shown.

  41. M.... S....

    When men were built from steel and ships from wood.

  42. P.... K....

    Met Bill Medley in Newport Beach with his daughter who was an aspiring singer. Talented family. RIP Bobbie Hatfield. Amazing music for the soul.

  43. M.... V....

    Top Gun 2?

  61. R.... M....

    I'm a Metal guy but this is so great

  62. S.... M....

    I’m glad I get to spend time with my grandparents, since they always listen to classy music like this! Back in a time where artists were just that... “Artists!!”

  63. T.... V....

    I would love to see someone do a movie about this group.  I think it would be great to see.  Just not sure who can pull it off though.

  64. L.... I....

    Ronni Flores my favorite part of the song whoever The woman Bill Medley singing too she ain’t going nowhere

    R.... F....

    @Johnny Terry im 25 years old i like this kind of music 60s 70s 80s i think they are amazing songs. The modern music is too bad. Greetings from Honduras

  72. D.... L....

    Bow ties....how things have changed...

  73. A.... O....

    Good music never gets lost or too old to listen too

  74. R.... ....

    Bill Hamilton, thanks for introducing me to this. I liked a girl in the the early 90's he told me to listen to this and poured my heart out! Grant you she was fine as fuck! She just didn't get it! she miserable now...

  75. 1.... ....

    I casually liked this song as a child. I was born in 78 to give perspective. At my uncle's funeral, I learned this was his first dance with my maternal aunt. It took on a much deeper meaning. I could see them dancing to this in my mind as I remember them. The 60s were great for music.

  76. p.... c....

    Have always loved when the musician crashes his 18 inch crashes to accent that along with a bass drum fits it neatly.. Noticed this when I was 8..now Im 11..greetings to all..
    Wellington New Zealand

  77. D.... W....

    These two guys had more soul than most singers could ever have! Just amazing!

  78. l.... ....

    It’s still #1 for me. Should’ve been on all the charts. Perfect all around. I want a guy like that!

  79. F.... Y....

    This would sound so good on a sunny beach

  87. G.... G....

    They have a bad ass song God bless bro's

  88. G.... M....

    This was art. Art before the millennial and later generations made it so art meant pornography, vulgarity on CD and before being strippers on stage somehow has been defined as art.

  89. C.... M....

    Amazing. Love the Righteous Brothers. Their voices, harmonies.
    I never had much going.
    But at least I had you.

    C.... M....

    I love that part so much!!

    C.... M....

  90. T.... D....

    the best music that earth has ever had the pleasure to wonder upon it come from the 1920.s right till the start of the 90.s 7 wonderfull decades that shaped the music like never before and will never come back in those time's it was all pure natural talent no bling no big shows with fireworks just the male/female singers and their pure voice . whenever i hear those songs who carreses my heart and soul and every fiber in my being i can't help but feel pein at the loss we have those song steered people in a righteous path to be the best people we can be now the music (if you can call that music) make's the new generation the worst of all time unless they let this heavenly music touch their inner fibers and let it reach their soul and heart as well their mind and bringing them back to be the best people they can be

  91. S.... Z....

  96. s.... b....

    WOW!!!!!! WHEN music was REAL MUSIC !!!! SO many GREAT MEMORIES listening to this great song!!!

  97. G.... D....

    Was stationed at Biggs Air Force Base in El Paso, Texas when this came out. Went up to the Airman's Club one night to hang out. I remember this song being played when I looked up to the second floor and there she was staring back at me. After exchanging eye glances back and forth I went upstairs and introduced myself. We dated until I shipped out (base was being turned over to Ft. Bliss) to Bunker Hill Air Force Base in Indiana about 3 months later. We wrote back and forth for awhile but that eventually faded as I figured it would. I'll always remember what special meaning that song was for me.

    G.... D....

    George Devine Great Story! Thanks for sharing.😎

    G.... D....

    And you wrote the book and sold the story to Hollywood and the world now knows it as “Top Gun”! Lol

  98. l.... p....

    Thank you Leslie for sending me this song and this always remind me of you.

    l.... p....

  100. E.... B....

    Benedict cumberbatch should play the dude on the left

    E.... B....

    Eoin Brennan Why? He looks nothing like him. Besides, he’s not a singer (as far as I know anyway.
