<pre>The power of love is a curious thing
Lyrics are from the full version of the song. The Guitar Freaks / drummania cut stops after the first chorus. Lyrics taken from here: [http://www.elyrics.net/read/h/huey-lewis-lyrics/power-of-love-lyrics.html]
 
<pre>
The power of love is a curious thing
make a one man weep, make another man sing
make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
Change a hawk to a little white dove
Line 25: Line 23:
That's the power of love
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 make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night
Chorus 1 :
You don't need money, don't take fame
You don't need money, don't take fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
Line 36: Line 28:
But it might just save your life
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
That's the power of love
That's the power of love
That's the power of love</pre>


First time you feel it, it might make you sad
== Song Connections / Remixes ==
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
None.
But you'll be glad baby when you've found
that's the power makes the world go'round


Chorus 2 :
== Trivia ==
And it don't take money, don't take fame
* THE POWER OF LOVE was originally written for the 1985 blockbuster movie, ''Back to the Future''. The song plays in all three installments of the series.
don't need no credit card to ride this train
* The Power of Love was later included on the Japanese and European versions of Huey Lewis and the News' fourth album, ''Fore!'', as well as their first compilation album in the UK, ''The Heart of Rock & Roll - The Best of Huey Lewis and The News''. It didn't appear on a U.S. album, however, until their 1996 compilation album (the first released in the U.S.) - ''Time Flies... The Best Of''.
It's strong and it's sudden it can be cruel sometimes
* THE POWER OF LOVE has never been on a CS release of GuitarFreaks & DrumMania.
But it might just save your life
* THE POWER OF LOVE has unused Guitar and Drum charts in [[AC GF5DM4|GUITARFREAKS 5thMIX & drummania 4thMIX]], suggesting that it was supposed to debut one game earlier. They are also longer than their final counterparts, meaning that a different cut of the song was meant to be used.
** While the notes are placed on its Guitar charts, they are not properly arranged, effectively making them placeholders.


They say that all in love is fair
== Song Production Information ==
yeah, but you don't care
None.
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
 
Chorus 3 :
It don't take money and it 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' 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
