The Power

Vanessa Amorosi

Mother Mary, Mother Mary 

Mother Mary, please answer my prayers 
I want to run free and I need you to be there 
I'm going to take some chances I never took before 
I've got to live my life and I'm going to risk it all 
I look to the sky and suddenly I know 
I've made up my mind, I'm never letting go 

It's the power I want, it's the power I need 
To make me run, to make me see for real 
It's the power I want, to let me do what I feel 
To make me run, to make me be for real 

Unlike a miracle or a wish upon a star 
The power to be me is all I need to start 
To do things I'll never regret 
and to leave the rest behind 

It's the power I want, it's the power I need 
To make me run, to make me see for real 
It's the power I want, to let me do what I feel 
To make me run, to make me be for real 

It's the power I want, it's the power I need 
To make me run, to make me see for real 
It's the power I want, to let me do what I feel 
To make me run, to make me be for real 

You're the one to only help me 
The only one, so help me, help me 
Give it to me, to me, to me 
Oh Mother Mary, please, please, please 
Please just help and watch me shine 
Then watch the power make me fly away 

Mother Mary, Mother Mary 

It's the power I want, it's the power I need 
To make me run, to make me see for real 
It's the power I want, to let me do what I feel 
To make me run, to make me be for real 

It's the power I want, it's the power I need 
To make me run, to make me see for real 
It's the power I want, to let me do what I feel 
To make me run, to make me be for real
