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

'cause i am your lady
and you are my man
whenever you reach for me
i'll do all that i can

lost is how i'm feeling 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
never wonder where i am
'cause i am always by your side

we're heading for something
somewhere i've never been
sometimes i am frightened
but i'm ready to learn
for the power of love

the sound of your heart beating
made it clear
suddenly the feeling that i can't go on
is lightyears away

the power of love

sometimes i am frightened
but im ready to learn
for the power of love

the power of love

that's the way it is

i can read your mind and i know your story
and i see what you're going through yeah
it's an uphill climb, and i'm feeling sorry
but i know it will come to you yeah

so don't surrender 'cause you can win
in this thing called love

when you want it the most there's no easy way out
when you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
don't give up on your faith
love comes to those who believe it
and that's the way it is

when you question me for a simple answer
i don't know what to say, no
but it's plain to see, if we stick together
you're gonna find the way, yeah

so don't surrender 'cause you can win
in this thing called love

when you want it the most there's no easy way out
when you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
don't give up on your faith
love comes to those who believe it
and that's the way it is
(that's the way it is)

when life is empty with no tomorrow
and loneliness starts to call
baby don't worry, forget your sorrow
'cause love's gonna conquer it all, all

when you want it the most there's no easy way out
when you're ready to go and your heart's left in doubt
don't give up on your faith
love comes to those who believe it
and that's the way it is

love comes to those who believe it
and that's the way it is

my heart will go on

every night in my dreams
i see you, i feel you,
that is how i know you go on

far across the distance
and spaces between us
you have come to show you go on

near, far, wherever you are
i believe that the heart does go on
once more you open the door
and you're here in my heart
and my heart will go on and on

love can touch us one time
and last for a lifetime
and never let go till we're gone
love was when i loved you
one true time i hold to
in my life we'll always go on

i believe that the heart does go on (go on)
once more you open the door
and you're here in my heart
and my heart will go on and on

and i know that my heart will go on
we'll stay forever this way
you are safe in my heart
and my heart will go on and on

and remember when
there was no one that you wanted more

when she walks away
and you know i'll be standing here still

here inside my heart
i'm the one who wants to love you more

it's all coming back to me now

there were nights when the wind was so cold
that my body froze in bed
if i just listened to it
right outside my window

there were days when the sun was so cruel
that all the tears turned to dust
and i just knew my eyes were
drying up forever
(forever)

i finished crying in the instant that you left
and i can't remember where or when or how
and i banished every memory you and i had ever made

but when you touch me like this
and you hold me like that
i just have to admit
that it's all coming back to me
when i touch you like this
and i hold you like that
it's so hard to believe but
it's all coming back to me
(it's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

there were moments of gold
and there were flashes of light
there were things i'd never do again
but then they'd always seemed right
there were nights of endless pleasure
it was more than any laws allow
baby baby

if i kiss you like this
and if you whisper like that
it was lost long ago
but it's all coming back to me
if you want me like this
and if you need me like that
it was dead long ago
but it's all coming back to me
it's so hard to resist
and it's all coming back to me
i can barely recall
but it's all coming back to me now

there were those empty threats and hollow lies,
and whenever you tried to hurt me id just hurt you even worse and so much deeper.
there were hours that went for days,
when alone at last we would count up all the chances that we lost to lost forever
(forever)

but you were history with the slamming of the door
and i made myself so strong again somehow
and i never wasted any of my time on you since then

but if i touch you like this
and if you kiss me like that
it was so long ago
but it's all coming back to me
if you touch me like this
and if i kiss you like that
it was gone with the wind
but it's all coming back to me
(it's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

there were moments of gold
and there were flashes of light
there were things we'd never do again
but then they'd always seemed right
there were nights of endless pleasure
it was more than all your laws allow
baby, baby, baby

when you touch me like this
and when you hold me like that
it was gone with the wind
but it's all coming back to me
when you see me like this
and when i see you like that
then we see what we want to see
all coming back to me
the flesh and the fantasies
all coming back to me
i can barely recall
but it's all coming back to me now

if you forgive me all this
if i forgive you all that
we forgive and forget
and it's all coming back to me
now (it's all coming back to me now)
and if i touch you like that
(it's all coming back to me now)
if you do it like this
(it's all coming back to me now)
and if we...

because you loved me

for all those times you stood by me
for all the truth that you made me see
for all the joy you brought to my life
for all the wrong that you made right
for every dream you made come true
for all the love i found in you
i'll be forever thankful baby
you're the one who held me up
never let me fall
you're the one who saw me through, through it all

you were my strength when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldn't speak
you were my eyes when i couldn't see
you saw the best there was in me
lifted me up when i couldn't reach
you gave me faith 'cause you believed
i'm everything i am
because you loved me

you gave me wings and made me fly
you touched my hand i could touch the sky
i lost my faith, you gave it back to me
you said no star was out of reach
you stood by me and i stood tall
i had your love i had it all
i'm grateful for each day you gave me
maybe i don't know that much
but i know this much is true
i was blessed because i was loved by you

you were my strength when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldn't speak
you were my eyes when i couldn't see
you saw the best there was in me
lifted me up when i couldn't reach
you gave me faith 'cause you believed
i'm everything i am
because you loved me

you were always there for me
the tender wind that carried me
the light in the dark shining your love into my life
you've been my inspiration
through the lies you were the truth
my world is a better place because of you

you were my strength when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldn't speak
you were my eyes when i couldn't see
you saw the best there was in me
lifted me up when i couldn't reach
you gave me faith 'cause you believed
i'm everything i am
because you loved me

you were my strength when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldn't speak
you were my eyes when i couldn't see
you saw the best there was in me
lifted me up when i couldn't reach
you gave me faith 'cause you believed
i'm everything i am
because you loved me

i'm everything i am
because you loved me

if you asked me to

used to be that i believed in something
used to be that i believed in love
it's been a long time since i've had that feeling
i could love someone
i could trust someone
i said i'd never let nobody near my heart again darlin'
i said i'd never let nobody in

but if you asked me to
i just might change my mind
and let you in my life forever
if you asked me to
i just might give my heart
and stay here in your arms forever
if you asked me to
if you asked me to

somehow ever since i've been around you
can't go back to being on my own
can't help feeling darling since i've found you
that i've found my home
that i'm finally home
i said i'd never let nobody get too close to me darling
i said i needed, needed to be free

(but if you asked me to...)

asked me to, i will give my world to you baby
i need you now
ask me to and i'll do anything for you baby, for you baby

if you asked me to
i'd let you in my life forever
if you asked me to...
