Lyrics of
The Power Of Love

The Power of Love was composed by Huey Lewis, Chris Hayes, and Johnny Colla, members of the band Huey Lewis and The News. It was written for the 1985 film Back to the Future and became one of the bands biggest hits, reaching the top of the charts in several countries. The song is celebrated for its association with the movies theme, highlighting the power of love as a universal, positive force.


The power of love is a curious thing
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, bricks like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl's dream

You 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, it might make you sad

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 ?
Hmmm

you won't feel nothin' till you feel
you feel the power, just 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
