Power of Love
Laura Branigan 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]
'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
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]
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
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Is light years away
[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

The whispers in the morning
The soft words exchanged between lovers at daybreak
Of lovers sleeping tight
Referring to peaceful night's rest shared by couples
Are rolling like thunder now
With the intensity of a loud, rumbling thunder
As I look in your eyes
While gazing deeply into the eyes of my loved one
I hold on to your body
Embracing your physical form tightly
And feel each move you make
Sense every motion and movement
Your voice is warm and tender
Your words are gentle and caring
A love that I could not forsake
An affection too strong to abandon
Cause I am your lady
I'm your woman
And you are my man
You're my man
Whenever you reach for me
Whenever you long for me
I'll do all that I can
I'll endeavor to help you in every way possible
Even though there may be times
Despite circumstances that occasionally arise
It seems I'm far away
It may seem like I'm physically distant
Never wonder where I am
Don't worry about where I am
Cause I am always by your side
Because I'm always with you
We're heading for something
We're on the path towards something
Somewhere I've never been
A place I've never ventured
Sometimes I am frightened
I'm occasionally scared
But I'm ready to learn
Yet, I'm eager to gain knowledge and experience
Of the power of love
Regarding the force that love can exert
The sound of your heart beating
The audible thumping of your heart
Made it clear
Made it evident
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Instantly felt that I couldn't continue
Is light years away
That feeling has become a distant memory

1978, The first time I saw her, I was 32 years old and deployed in Germany. She was on German tv. All the duds went crazy, Laura Branigan, young and beautifull and an amazing voice.
1985 juli 11th, remembered the day, it was our 15th wedding ann, me and my wife experienced her concert at the Six Flags Jackson, New Jersey . Wow, what a performance. She grew older but even more atractive to watch and still that powerful voice. Her skills on the piano and the rendition of The Power Of Love make my wife grab her tissues.
1990, Atlantic City, I witnessed the best performance ever from Laura Branigan but without my wife, she passed away a year ago. With her emotional Power of Love on stage this time it was me searching for tissues.
2004. RIP Laura Brannigan. Forget Madonna, Beyonce and all those other clods. You outcast them all with your talent.
2020. I’m 74 yrs old now but still get my eyes wet watching your vids and remembering my wife.
