(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 chain
(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

 Chorus:
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 this the power of love
Is this the tao of love, I feel the power of love

(Solo)

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

chorus

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
