Lyrics

You and me we always sweat and we strainyou look for sun and
I look for rainwe're different people, we're not the samethe power of the sun
I looked for treetops, you looked for capsabove the water, where the waves snap back
I flew around the world to bring you backah the power of the heartyou looked at me and
I looked at youthe sleeping heart was shining throughthe wispy cobwebs that we're breathing throughthe power of the heart
I looked at you and you looked at me
I thought of the past, you thought of what could be
I asked you once again to marry methe power of the heart
Everybody says love makes the world go round
I hear a bubbling and
I hear a soundof my heart beating and
I turn aroundand find you standing at the dooryou know me
I like to dream a lotof this and that and what is notand finally
I figured out what was whatit was the power of the heart
You and me we sweat and strainthe result is always the sameyou think somehow we're in a gamethe power of the heartthe power of the heart
I think I'm dumb
I know you're smartthe beating of a purebred heart
I say this to you and it's not a larkmarry me today
You know me
I like to dream a lotof what there is and what there's notbut mainly
I dream of you a lotthe power of the heartthe power of the heart
