Power of Million Lights Songtext
von Electric Light Orchestra Part II

I hear your voice close on the phone
But I know you′re far away
I've waited so long to talk to you
But now I can′t find the words to say
So I sit and I listen to you
Breathe on the open line
I can almost taste your lips
And touch your hair
It's like intoxicating wine
I can almost see your face
Through the miles and miles of space


Chorus
I can feel the power of a million lights
When I see your eyes burn bright
I can see the sparks of a million volts
When you touch me through the night
I can feel the heat across a million miles
When you voice comes through the line
I can feel the power of a million lights
Come through the satellite

Although these oceans hold us apart
Where there's a will there′s a way
I′m going to reach across the miles of sea
No matter what they say
So close your eyes and I'll be there
There′s magic in the sky tonight
When you see the lightning flash around the world
It's the power of a million lights
Until I see your face
Through the miles and miles of space

Chorus

Somewhere over the atmosphere
The signals are crossed
Now you′re not so clear
The power is out and the lights are down
My head is spinning
Round and round and round and round and round

You know I need you more tonight
By the power of a million lights
