"A song that embodies the sanctity of human connection and the sacred bond that is untouchable even by death, Soul Mate is a song that is felt, not merely heard. The official video presents another layer and level of our humanity in an unforgettable story that illustrates love at its best and hate at its worst. Despite lived tragedies, there remains hope in our realities sustained by love."
Allié McGuire
Co-Founder of Awareness Ties

THE SONG


​THE LYRICS

Feels like we've lived a hundred lives before
Together and then decided on one more
Here on earth where everything is cruel
'Cause no one knows that this is just a school

For what it's worth, I'd die with you again
100 more times multiplied by ten
I hope I'll always have you in my mind
So that I know to find you every time

Soul mate, soul mate, soul mate
Won't you dance here with me while it grows late?
Put your head on my chest, that's your safe place
We'll fall deeper in love every day

From life unto life and for always
I'll be there when you need me around
When night finally comes
And the leaves have fallen from the tree
Baby, you'll have me
Soul mate

Maybe there's not a brightness in this dark
Other than what is burning in this heart
But if we fight to keep this thing alive
Pretty sure there's no end to us in sight

I'll follow you into whatever is next
Or you can follow me whatever's best
First let's dance the dance that lovers do
Before we go to sleep and start anew

Soul mate, soul mate, soul mate
Won't you dance here with me while it grows late?
Put your head on my chest, that's your safe place
We'll fall deeper in love every day

From life unto life and for always
I'll be there when you need me around
When night finally comes
And the leaves have fallen from the tree
Baby, you'll have me
Soul mate
​
I promise you that I'll find a way
To give you hope, to keep you close and safe
Keep you no matter come what may
Then we'll sleep in endless shades of gray
(And then we'll sleep in endless shades of gray)


​THE ARTISTS

In 2012, the pair met on SoundCloud and struck up a musical connection, leading Shpresa Lleshaj to travel from Stockholm to Minneapolis to meet Cole Randall in person. They returned to Sweden together and immediately began work as Flora Cash. They were married the next year.

After independently releasing a handful of songs and two EPs, the pair signed with Swedish label Icons Creating Evil Art, after which they released, Can Summer Love Last Forever?, in March 2016. The seven-song mini-LP earned them nominations for two GAFFA awards, as Swedish Artist of the Year and Swedish Newcomer of the Year

Flora Cash broke into the mainstream with their song "You're Somebody Else"; a track from their debut full-length album, Nothing Lasts Forever (And It’s Fine), which Steve Baltin, writing for Forbes Magazine called "arguably the most intriguing song on radio this past year." The song reached #1 on Alternative Radio and achieved RIAA Platinum Certification in the United States.

The duo performed several times on American television after making their debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden and toured with Sir Sly, Joywave, lovelytheband, Judah & the Lion and AJR throughout 2018 and 2019.

In early 2020, Flora Cash released their second full-length album ‘Baby, It’s Okay’ on Sony’s RCA Records, which featured Billboard charting singles ‘Missing Home’ and ‘They Own This Town.
