Peter Gabriel ~ The Power of the Heart

Peter Gabriel covers Lou Reed from his album "Scratch My Back" 2010.

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
it was the power of your heart

the power of your heart
the power of your heart
all around the world to bring you back
was the power of your heart
of your heart

you looked at me
I looked at you
your sleepy heart was shining through
wispy cobwebs that were breathing through
the power of the heart

I looked at you
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

the power of the heart
the power of the heart
all around the world just to bring you home
that's the power of your heart
of your heart

everybody says love makes the world go round
I hear a bubble
I hear a sound
of my heart beating then 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
finally I figured out what was what
it was the power of your heart

the power of your heart
the power of your heart
all around the world just to bring you back
it was the power of your heart
of your heart

you and me we sweat and strain
but the result it's always the same
I think somehow we're in a game
the power of the heart

I think I'm dumb and I know you're smart
the beating of a purebred heart
I say this to you and it's no 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 your heart

the power of your heart
the power of your heart
all around the world to bring you back
it's the power of your heart

the power of your heart
the power of your heart
finally I figured out what was what
it was the power of your heart
of your heart

I'd like to thank each any everyone who has taken the time to view, comment and rate and/or favorite this video. This was my very first video creation attempt. Thanks also to Peter Gabriel and Lou Reed for providing the inspiration with this amazing tune. A special thanks to my dear friend and video mentor, Mozo, for the assistance, guidance and for having faith in me.
