When you're just a little girl
Don't know much about the world
Life's so easy, nothing's insecure
Got no worries, got no cares
All your secrets you can share,
Lead a life that's way beyond compare

But suddenly it'll be the day, your childhood slips a mile away
The feeling that you're dreamin' of, well it's called love

Love's like a river that's between you and me
Love is the power of your heart
(This is the power of my heart)
It is the roses that you gave me, my love
(Yeah)
Love is the reason that you're mine

I remember my first dance
And my very first romance
All those presents he would give to me
But I couldn't sleep a wink
Everytime I had to think,
Loosing him would be so hard to bear

But it's the price you have to pay, the price of love they always say
The feeling that you're dreamin' of, that's called love

Come on and sing it now
Love's like a river that's between you and me
(Oh yeah)
Love is the power of your heart
(This is the power of my heart)
It is the roses that you gave me, my love
(Oh yeah)
Love is the reason that you're mine

But it's the price you have to pay, the price of love they always say
The feeling that you're dreamin' of, that's called love

Come on, sing it, yeah
Love's like a river that's between you and me
(Yeah, that's between lovers)
Love is the power of your heart
(Oh yeah, in my heart)
It is the roses that you gave me, my love
(Oh yeah)
Love is the reason that you're mine

Remember if you say the words: "I want you"
'Cause it can be worse, 'cause it can break your heart

Love's like a river that's between you and me
(Oh yeah)
Love is the power of your heart
(Oh yeah the power, yes the power)
It is the roses that you gave me, my love
(Yeah)
Love is the reason that you're mine
(Come on and sing it one more time)
Love is the reason that you're mine
