The power of love can make a blind man see
Can bring a man to his knees
The power of love can make a sultan grieve
Can make a skeptic believe

The power of love is south of south
And scorches out all the doubt
The power of love is the name of names
And burns away all the pain

The power of love can make a gangster cry
Can make a loser try
The power of love can make a strong man weak
Can make a bigot meek

The power of love is south of south
And scorches out all the doubt
The power of love is the name of names
And burns away all the pain

The power of love can make a coward brave
Can make a hero afraid
The power of love can make a miser give
Can make a dead man live

The power of love is south of south
And scorches out all the doubt
The power of love is the name of names
And burns away all the pain

The power of love is south of south
And scorches out all the doubt
The power of love is the name of names
And burns away all the pain
