Lou Reed - The Power of the Heart lyrics

You and me, we always sweat and strain You look for sun, I look for rain We're different people, we're not the same The power of the sun I look at treetops, you look 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 then you looked at me I thought of past, you thought of what could be I asked you once again to marry me Ooh, the power of the heart Everybody says love makes the world go around 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 The power of the heart You and me, we sweat and strain The result's always the same You think somehow we're in a game 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 no 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 your heart The power of your heart
