Power Of Love
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
[Chorus:]
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love
'Cause you're my lady
And I am your 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
[Chorus:]
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Is light years away
[Chorus:]
Engelbert Humperdinck's song Power of Love is a ballad about the strength and impact of love on a couple's relationship. The song begins with the singer describing how the whispers of lovers sleeping tight sound like rolling thunder to him. He then looks into his partner's eyes and expresses his admiration for her with each move she makes. The chorus talks about heading towards something he has never experienced before and being ready to learn about the power of love. He reaffirms that he is there for his lady and willing to do all he can whenever she needs him.
The second verse tells us that when he is lying in his lover's arms, he feels lost and safe from the harsh realities of the world outside. He reassures her that even though he may seem far away at times, he is always by her side. In the last chorus, the singer talks about how the sound of his lover's heart beating against his chest make him feel reassured and gives him the strength to continue. The feeling of not being able to go on is suddenly light years away.
Overall, the song speaks about how love provides us with the requisite strength to navigate the highs and lows of a relationship. Even though things may seem tough at times, love helps us find the motivation we need to push through.

The whispers in the morning
The soft spoken words exchanged in the quiet morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Between the sleeping bodies of two in love
Are rolling like thunder now
Have now amplified in strength and passion
As I look in your eyes
As I gaze into your powerful eyes
I hold on to your body
I grasp tightly to your physical form
And feel each move you make
And sense every subtle motion you create
Your voice is warm and tender
Your speaking tone is kind and affectionate
A love that I could not forsake
An intense love that I could never abandon
[Chorus:] We're heading for something
Together we are moving towards an unknown destination
Somewhere I've never been
To a place that I have never experienced before
Sometimes I am frightened
Occasionally I am scared of this uncharted path
But I'm ready to learn
But I am open to learning and growing
Of the power of love
About the strength and influence of love
'Cause you're my lady
Because you are my significant other
And I am your man
And I am your partner
Whenever you reach for me
Whenever you require my support
I'll do all that I can
I will do everything in my power to assist you
Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms
In your embrace, I feel comfort and safety
When the world outside's too much to take
When the external world is overwhelming
That all ends when I'm with you
That stress and worry dissipates when I am with you
Even though there may be times
Although there may be moments
It seems I'm far away
Where it appears that I am distant
Never wonder where I am
Do not question my location
'Cause I am always by your side
Because I am consistently beside you
[Chorus:]
Repeats the earlier mentioned chorus
The sound of your heart beating
The rhythmic sound of your heart pumping
Made it clear
Became apparent to me
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Previously, I felt like I couldn't continue forward
Is light years away
Now, that emotion seems very far away
