Peter Gabriel - The Power of the Heart lyrics

You and me we always sweat and we strain You look for sun and I look for rain We're different people, we're not the same The power of the sun I looked for treetops, you looked for caps Above the water, where the waves snap back I flew around the world to bring you back Ah the power of your heart You looked at me and I looked at you The sleeping heart was shining through The wispy cobwebs that we're breathing through The 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 me The power of the heart Everybody says love makes the world go round I hear a bubbling and I hear a sound Of my heart beating and I turn around And find you standing at the door You know me I like to dream a lot Of this and that and what is not And finally I figured out what was what It was the power of the heart You and me we sweat and strain The result is always the same I think somehow we're in a game The power of the heart The power of the heart I think I'm dumb I know you're smart The beating of a purebred heart I say this to you and it's not a lark Marry me today You know me I like to dream a lot Of what there is and what there's not But mainly I dream of you a lot The power of the heart The power of the heart
