Power of Love

It was “Never Too Much” for me to love you.
“And I Don't Want To Be A Fool “ by letting you go.
I want your love” Here And Now” that’s true.
“Love The One You’re With” I love you so.

“And I Don't Want To Be A Fool” by letting you go.
Our love is not like”Any Love” I’ve ever known.
“ Love The One You’re With” I love you so.
You’re my “Superstar” and real love is shown.

Our love is not like”Any Love” I’ve ever known.
“ A House Is Not A Home” if your not here .
You’re my “Superstar” and real love is shown.
You “ Give Me The Reason To Love" and it's sincere.


“ A House Is Not A Home” if your not here. 
I want you to know “There's Nothing Better Than Love”.
You “Give Me The Reason To Love” and it's sincere. 
“Creeping” is not our style, you’re a gift from up above.


I want you to know “There's Nothing Better Than Love”.
My darling you’re “So Amazing “ and I long for your touch
“Creeping" is not our style, you’re a gift from up above.
Sweetheart  I will always “ Stop To Love” you much.


My darling you’re “So Amazing “ and I long for your touch
I want your love" Here And Now" that's true.
Sweetheart I will always “ Stop To Love” you much.
It was "Never Too Much" for me to love you.

I thought it might be Jennifer Rush with The Power of Love Alexis, but Luther is obviously much more talented that her. Congratulation.

Hi Silent, Thank you so much for my placement in your contest. I'm sorry I wanted to use "Dance With My Father " because that is one of my favorite songs by Luther. Maybe next time:-) Alexis
