Roland Orzabal - Power Lyrics

Last years rivals share their blood

Sailor sworn to secrecy

Ride the waves and stem the flood

The tides of endless enmity

Power now is all the rage

Sons and daughters of the gun

Hungry babies come of age

Phasers switched and set to stun



Power now, power how, power wow !

Here's power



If you're seeking power



Doctor held you tight and torn

Boy he was a lucky man

Out of you the future born

Slight of foot and sight of hand

Douse the candle, dim the light

Focus not on fire or flame

Don't believe that might is right

Your soul can turn you just the same



Power now, power how, power wow !

If you're seeking power - here's power

Power now, power how, power wow !

If you're seeking power - here's power



If you take my breath away

The whole damn thing will turn and return

Redefined, rearranged, rearranged

And till my dying the day

I guess I'll have to burn just to learn

This the time, this the place

To show a human face



Dressed to kill we guessed you might

Friend or foe or family

We'll sacrifice the Virgin white

Her death will be the life of me

Power now is all the rage

Don't excuse it use it well

Keep the lion in his cage

Free from hunger, free from hell



Power now, power how, power wow !

If you're seeking power - here's power
