Power of One
Treasure Box - track 14
music and lyrics: Frieda Gerhart, Tracey Roberts and Wim Oudijk © 98


In the passage of the life that I have known
Are portraits of the people who I love
Of them all you're the one who stands alone
The thought of you leaving freezes me
But then a stronger force would carry me
To a place inside a melody
And I know that everything would be all right

On the wings of a song I can do anything
To fly amid a symphony is everything
Infinity above me, mountain peaks below
This is the place where I know
The power of one

There are many things that I have yet to learn
And many unknown pathways to explore
And I know that there are bridges I will burn
With failings and insecurities
But there's a place where nothing touches me
Majestic in its ecstasy
Where I can stand invincible and strong

On the wings of a song I can do anything
To fly amid a symphony is everything
Infinity above me, mountain peaks below
This is the place where I know
The power of one

On the wings of a song I can do anything
To fly amid a symphony is everything
Infinity above me, mountain peaks below
This is the place where I know
The power of one
