The Power of Love

The power of love

Our love is like 
a river that flows...
strong currents 
carry us away...
Life changes direction
as it goes,

regenerating our love,
everyday

Our love is like
a strong wind that blows,
soaring together
on the wings of love
Gusting through 
the windmills,
our love grows...

energizing the
seagull and the dove


Chorus

I feel, 
the power of love,
when you look at me...
a magnetic attraction,
draws you close to me.
I feel, 
the power of love,
lying next to you...
a synergy of passion,
that burns forever
clean and true.


Our love is like
the blazing sun...
illuminating all of 
our life's pathway,

Radiating heat
on everyone...
reflecting and collecting
each and everyday

Chorus

I feel, 
the power of love,
when you look at me...
a magnetic attraction,
draws you close to me.
I feel, 
the power of love,
lying next to you...
a synergy of passion,
that burns forever
clean and true.

Our love is a
consuming fire...
the flames warm us,
and keeps our love burning

We toss in coals,
with each passing glance,
stoking the embers that,
keeps us forever yearning

Chorus

I feel, 
the power of love,
when you look at me...
a magnetic attraction,
draws you close to me.
I feel, 
the power of love,
lying next to you...
a synergy of passion,
that burns forever
clean and true.

Chorus repeat and fade
