I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
I, feels like fire
I'm so in love with you
Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay, bad at bay
Love is the light
Scaring darkness away, yeah
I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down
I'll be around with my undying
Death defying love for you
Envy will hurt itself
Let yourself be beautiful
Sparkling love, flowers and pearls and pretty girls
Love is like an energy
Rushin' in, rushin' inside of me, yeah
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
This time we go sublime
Lovers entwine, divine divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
The power of love
A force from above
A sky-scraping dove
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
Keep the vampires from your door
I, feels like fire
I'm so in love with you
Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay, bad at bay
Love is the light
Scaring darkness away, yeah
I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down
I'll be around with my undying
Death defying love for you
Envy will hurt itself
Let yourself be beautiful
Sparkling love, flowers and pearls and pretty girls
Love is like an energy
Rushin' in, rushin' inside of me, yeah
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul

This time we go sublime
Lovers entwine, divine divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you

How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making, or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed.
But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?"
We have a choice to love or hate. Given this choice is proof that love is freely given to us as a never fading companion. This song awakens the fact that we are never alone while we walk lifes journey.
I love this beautiful song, so full of emotion, expressing that feeling of being deeply in love. You will do ANYthing to protect your loved one, your heart brimming with incandescent, passionate, un-dreamed of love.
'Make love your goal' if this was the goal of us all, romantic love and love of life, surely all our lives would be better.
Frankie says, reply! lol.
"I'll protect you from the hooded claw
keep the vampires from your door"
which adds greatly to the power and passion of the song. This of course was the third of the Frankie No 1's in the UK at Xmas 85. (This was one of the three songs with the same title; Power of Love, that got to number one in the year (the others being Huey Lewis and the News and Jennifer Rush).
This song reflects the power of love to the protagonist of the song. A beutiful song that was used in the first as the backdrop to the first condom advert on TV in the UK (for Durex I think).
An epic arrangement with imaginative lyrics featuring mystical imagery. The video is about the birth of Jesus and beautifully done indeed.
Basically, the lyrics are a description of The Power of Love, but with references to love between partners as well as the caring - for - others type.
What I've always wondered is what the heck is the "hooded-claw"?
