I know what you mean, I thought the same thing when I sang it in my head....how weird! So I just listened to the Hounds of Love version. She definitely sings..
"But just saying it could even make it happen." It says that on the lyric sheet too.
Haven't heard her new album yet though I'm sure it'll be just as innovative as the others. I love all her work, esp The Dreaming. She's so unique, I've always been a big fan of hers.
