The Power of Love
Lewis Huey & News The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling, that's the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl's dream
Make a bad one good, mmh make a wrong-one right
Don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love
First time you feel it might make you sad
Next time you feel it might make you mad
But you'll be glad baby when you're found
That's the power that makes the world go 'round
And it don't take money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden, it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you don't care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it? (hmm hmm)
It don't take money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You won't feel nothin' 'til you feel
You feel the power, feel the power of love
That's the power, that's the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love

Leaves car alone to strangers thinking they'll listen to him
Stranger touches everything

@@audiodood , alors ! La date de la sortie de la musique de film :

Then ! The release date of the film soundtrack:
1976, 1978 or 1980?
Not 1985, anyway
@dureteheiral1793
well, should the collapse of Soviet Union thus Warsaw Pact simply not happening...
the constant and real threat of open nuclear weapons exchange between the Commie block vs NATO...
the constant and real threat of open military confrontation between two opposing blocks..
that was what made the 1980s...
the nuance and romanticism of the 80s would be still lives on... up to this very day...
IMHO,... no one really wants to live in that dark gloomy bleak of an era...
not with all those Heaven's shinigami breathing down ones neck...

1980 people: the future will be awesome
2020 people: I want to go back to the 80s
@herpderp7264
1980s - “man I can’t wait for 2020. Flying cars, a colony on the moon and hover boards
2020s - “76 genders exist, mumble rap is top of the charts month after month and everyone wants to go back and live in the 80s”

I MISS LATE 70'
@LowgaenSchmidt
Bout to do just that with my high school music students. We put on a dinner show every year with pop music, and our theme is the 80s. The kids are dressing up in 80s style clothes, performing 80s music, I'm even going to far as to be Doc Brown.
@carlosalfaro001
2020: will we have a future?
@zapkvr
I don't.
@ikuep
Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop, Ghostbusters, Footloose, Dirty Dancing, Rocky, and of course this masterpiece, just to mention a few....Am I wrong to say 80s soundtracks are best ever?
@jerryperry1788
