POWER OF LOVE, THE
(C De Rouge / G Mende / J Rush / M S Applelgate 1984)
as recorded by Jennifer Rush
1984
Whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight,
Are rolling by like thunder now, as I look in your eyes.
I hold on to your body and feel each move you make,
Your voice is warm and tender,
A love that I could not forsake!
'Cause I am your lady, and you are my man;
Whenever you reach for me, I do all that I can.
Lost is how I'm feelin', lying in your arms;
When the world outside's too much to take,
That all ends when I'm with you!
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away,
But never wonder where I am,
'Cause I am always by your side!
'Cause I am your lady, and you are my man;
Whenever you reach for me, I do all that I can.
We're heading for something, somewhere I've never been,
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love!
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear suddenly,
The feeling that I can't go on
Is light years away!
'Cause I am your lady, and you are my man;
Whenever you reach for me, I'm gonna do all that I can.
We're heading for something, somewhere I've never been,
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love!
We're heading for something, somewhere I've never been,
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love!
Oh the power of love,
The power of love,
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
'Bout the power of love!
