The Power of Love
The 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 whole body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake
CHORUS: 'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
Never wonder where I am
'Cause I'm always by your side
CHORUS: 'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll 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 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
CHORUS: 'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I am 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 the power of love
The power of love
The power of love
