"I've Learned To Respect (The Power Of Love)" lyrics

Ooh, yea
Mmm, woo, ooh
Mm, aye

Mmm, hmm, woo
Yea (The power of love)
The power of love (yeah)
Mmm, woo, hmm, mm yea
The power of love

I was a victim of
My foolish thinking
Carelessly I've risked
My love and my life

There's no self-pity
I admit, I obliged
Overpowered by love
I pretended to be blind

And faith has survived
All the doubts I've summoned
My heart has stood, Lord
All the failure and loss

But helpless I cannot
(No no) no, further be driven (oh, no)
I've learned respect,yea
The power of love

Learned to respect (learned to respect)
The power of love
I (oh yes I have) learned to respect
Mmm-mm, the power of respect

I learned to respect
Learned to respect, y'all
The power of love
I (yes I have) learned to respect
The power of love

I was always afraid
Of being the one left hurt
Running away from the one thing
Which I've always yearned

I am not ashamed to tell you
Many nights I've tossed and I've turned
But I learned, learned, learned, learned, learned
The power of love, woo, yea

I've learned to respect yes, lord
The power of love, I
Learned to respect, woo
The power of love, (yes, I have)

Learned to respect
The power of love, woo yea
Learned to respect
The power of love, woo, hmm

Learned to respect
The power of love
Learned to respect
The power of love

Mmm, woo, oh, hey
The power of love
Why because I need you
I want you (I want you beside me)
I trust you
I believe in you (Oh, yes, I do)
Oh, I adore you
I love you so

Learned to respect
The power of love
I, learned to respect
The power of love

I learned to respect
The power of love
I learned to respect
The power of love

I learned (yea, baby) to respect
The power of love (the power of love)
Let me say it one time, woo (yea)
It was a long time ago
Long time ago I came to know
Woo, (yea)
My lord, something so good about it
It' s the power that makes you walk right
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)
It's the power that makes you talk right
(Doo-doo, doo-doo)
It's the power that makes you sing it right

Woo, ooh, ooh, woo, the power of love
Yea, The power of love
It's the power that makes you love right
Its the power of love

Learned to respect (learn to respect)
The power of love
You need to learn
We need to learn
The power of love

Listen to me
Learned to respect
Many nights I tossed and I turned
The power of love

Down on my knees
Learned to respect
Stephanie, want to tell you about the power
The power of love
Power, power, woo
