I think that somewhere along the line
(And it's said, all things return to you in time)
I must have finally opened up to your love
Though I was building a wall at heaven's gate
(Everything comes to those who wait)
You must have found a secret path into my soul
And now you're part of my life
I can't believe that this is mine
Every light has its time to shine

I want to understand this change in me

Is it the Power Of Love
Is it the Power Of Love
Is this the Tao of Love
I feel the Power Of Love

Caught up in the famous paper chase
(In your eyes, I saw how I never fell from grace)
I must have finally opened up to your love

And I heard the battle's not always to the strong
(The race is not always to the fleet)
And the one who seeks to pluck the stars
Will miss the jewels at his feet

Blinded by momentary power
We almost had the final hour
I'll never know what caused the change in me

Was it the Power Of Love
Is it the Power Of Love
Is this the Tao of love
I feel the Power Of Love

Is it the Power Of Love
Is it the Power Of Love
Is this the Tao of love
I feel the Power Of Love

And I thought anything for the cause is worth the price
(Losing you was the sharp edge of the knife)
Now no more fear, the way is clear
I know you are the power in my life

So better late than never
'Cause this heart is yours forever
I'll never know what caused the change in me

Was it the Power Of Love
Is it the Power Of Love
Is this the Tao of love
I feel the Power Of Love

Is it the Power Of Love
Is it the Power Of Love
Is this the Tao of love
I feel the Power Of Love

I think that somewhere along the line
(And it's said all things return to you in time)
I must have finally opened up to your love
