He hadn't told his kids he hadn't told his wife
Made plans to leave it all
Leave it all behind that night
He had his car gassed up he had his suitcase packed
He planned to hit the road
Hit it hard and not look back
He made it 40 miles out of town
But turned on the radio and turned the car around

That's the power of a song
When it grabs you by the heart
It's gonna find you when it wants to
No matter where you are
That's the miracle of music
Love's the only thing as strong
That can move you when you hear it
That's the power of a song

His voice inside her head
Said you're not strong enough
But in her heart she knows
That love shouldn't hurt that much
Knew what her future held like the back of his hand
She'd tried a hundred times
But she couldn't leave that man
She made it 40 miles out of town
Turned up the radio
And never turned that car around

That's the miracle of music
Love's the only thing as strong
That can move you when you hear it
That's the power the power of a song
