Powerful Love
Irresistible Temptation: A Tale of Love's Forbidden Power
Lyrics
Why in the world, do I love you like I do, baby?
The singer wonders why they love the person so intensely.
When you told me over and over
Despite being repeatedly informed by the person about their lack of faithfulness, the singer heard it multiple times.
Sure enough, girl, that you wouldn't be true
The person assured the singer of their unfaithfulness.
Well, I can't stop myself, from singing this same old song
The singer feels unable to stop expressing their emotions through the same song.
I love you, with a love so powerful
The singer loves intensely.
So powerful that it's wrong
The love is so intense that it feels inappropriate or misplaced.
I could tell myself, I don't want you any more, oh, baby
The singer tries to convince themselves that they don't want the person anymore.
Then I turn around, and say goodbye, oh, baby
Despite attempts to leave, the singer finds it hard to say goodbye.
Walk straight on out the door
The singer leaves but anticipates returning.
But you know I'll be back, on my bended knees
The singer expects to return and beg for forgiveness.
Before you can count to 10
Expressing a quick return before a short time passes.
Because I love you, with a love so powerful
Reaffirmation of the intense love for the person.
Oh, so powerful, it's a sin
The love is so intense that it feels morally wrong.
I guess I'm a prisoner ,and you got the key, baby
The singer feels trapped by the person's influence.
I know I'll never be happy, till you love me, and set me set me free
The singer believes their happiness depends on the person's love and freedom from this situation.
So, baby, try it my way, oh, and please
The singer urges the person to try things from the singer's perspective and not delay.
Don't make me wait too long
The singer requests the person not to keep them waiting for too long.
Because I love you
Reiteration of the intense love for the person.
With a love so powerful
The love is highlighted again as overpowering.
Oh, so powerful
Reaffirmation of the intense love for the person.
Well, I love you
The singer reiterates their strong love for the person.
With a love so powerful
Reaffirmation of the intense love for the person.
Oh, so powerful, that it's wrong
The love is so intense that it feels inappropriate or misplaced.
Oh, no oh, no
An expression of denial or refusal.
Oh, you know, you know, you know
Reaffirmation of the overwhelming nature of the love.
It's so powerful
The love is highlighted as incredibly strong.
You gotta love, you gotta love
An urging for reciprocation of love.
