She's Had the Power lyrics

I knew what I was doin'

and I knew it wasn't right,

but there she was a-standin'

in the middle of the night.

And I've seen a lot of faces,

but never one like this.

I'd have sold my soul for nothing

for the memory of her kiss.

She had the power to take me to paradise.

No one can ever take that away.

She had the power, oh Lord, I paid the price

'cause she wouldn't let me stand in her way.

She knew what I was thinkin'.

She knew that I was wrong.

I thought she'd stay forever,

but I turned and she was gone.

Then she read me like a gypsy

lookin' in her crystal ball.

Then she left me like a prisoner

standin' up against the wall.

She had the power to take me to paradise

and no one can ever take that away.

She had the power, oh Lord, I paid the price.

She wouldn't let me stand in her way.  

She had the power to take me to paradise.

No one can ever take that away.

She had the power, oh Lord, I paid the price.

She wouldn't let me stand in her way.
