Atlantic - Power Over Me (AOR)

Power, 1994. (Phil Bates)
Power Over Me
Every night it's the same situation
Lying here and stare at the wall
I'm running pictures through my imagination
Trying to make sense of it all
I'm trying not to think of you
With my defences open wide
There's nothing I can do
I've got nowhere to hide
You've got a power over me
I've made up my mind I wanna run from you
But my heart won't set me free
And I know I can't let go
You've got a power over me
I'm wasting my time breaking away from you
'Cause my mind won't let me be
And I can't say no, I can't say no
Every day I'm just losing concentration
Trying to get you out of my mind
I can't even hide away in conversation
'Cause the words are just too hard to find
And I can't live in peace
With all these ghosts inside my head
And I can't find release
From everything you said
You've got a power over me
Made up my mind I wanna run from you
But my mind won't set me free
And I know I can't let go
You've got a power over me
I'm wasting my time breaking away from you
'Cause my mind won't let me be
And I can't say no, I can't say no
(Guitar solo)
Got a power over me
I've made up my mind I wanna run from you
But my heart won't set me free
And I know I can't let go
Got a power over me
I've made up my mind I wanna run from you
But my heart won't set me free
And I know I can't let go
You've got a power over me
I'm wasting my time breaking away from you
'Cause my mind won't let me be
And I can't say no, I can't say no
You've got a power
