TOWER OF POWER
"As Surely As I Stand Here"
(Stephen "Doc" Kupka, Chester Thompson, Emilio Castillo)

As surely as I stand here
As surely as I breathe
I will not forsake you girl
I will never leave
As surely as there's sunshine
Just as sure as there is sunshine, oh baby
As surely as there's rain
I could never make you sad or ever bring you pain -
And it's a safe bet; I'll never make you fret
I'm gonna love and cherish you
No matter what you say or do

As surely as I stand here
As surely as I breathe
I will take good care of you, baby
Be strong instead of weak

As surely as there's moonbeams
(No - no, no, no, no)
As surely as we dream
You and I will grow together
And we'll grow, grow as a team
And it's a safe bet, That you'll always be on the set
I'm gonna love you constantly
Of this I'm sure most definitely
You may wonder how I know - know this is true
All I have to do is take one look at you
There in your eyes I see that special glow, oh
And in my mind, oh in my mind
I positively know-ooooww

[MUSICAL INTERLUDE - HORN SECTION PLAYS]

As surely as there's moonbeams
As surely as we dream

[MUSICAL INTERLUDE - HORN SECTION PLAYS]

You may wonder how I know this is true
All I have to do is take one look at you
There in your eyes I see that special glow, oh
And in my mind, oh in my mind
I positively know-ooooww

As surely as I stand here
As surely, surely as I exist
You'll always be my one and only girl
Number One on my list
As surely as the stars glow
(You ought to listen to me baby)
As surely as there's winter snow
As the seasons come and go
The love we share will grow and grow-ooooww
And it's a safe bet - that the best ain't happened yet
What a beautiful life I have in store for us baby
I believe I'm gonna love you; Love you more and more

As surely as I stand here
As surely as there's winter snow
And the seasons - seasons come and go
You know I'm gonna love you -
I'm gonna love you more, more & more & more & more & more
Surely as I stand here
Surely as I breathe
I would never, never, never hurt you lady
This you can believe
'Cause I love-ovve you
