Story behind the song
I wrote the lyrics and the music at the same time and was striving for a "George Jones" type of expression. The tempo was increased simply because it felt better during a performance.
Lyrics
It all started with the touch of her hand The pretty lady gained control of this man And though I've tried and tried I just can't break these chains Now she's gone, but her power still remains Lord, she's got the power over me I don't love her But my heart says I'm not free I guess love is really blind cause I can't see She's got the power, the power over me You know it's funny that I even feel this way I felt laughter when i left her on that day Now my tears and pain are all that I can see She's got the power, the power over me Lord, she's got the power over me I don't love her But my heart says I'm not free I guess love is really blind cause I can't see She's got the power, the power over me Lord, she's got the power over me I don't love her But my heart says I'm not free I guess love is really blind cause I can't see She's got the power, the power over me She's got the power, the power over me
