I Have Learned To Respect The Power Of Love - Stephanie Mills

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

Mmm, woo, oh, hey

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
