Lyrics
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 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

Trivia
- 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.
- 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.
- THE POWER OF LOVE has never been on a CS release of GuitarFreaks & DrumMania.
- THE POWER OF LOVE has unused, placeholder EXTREME charts in GUITARFREAKS 5thMIX & drummania 4thMIX, suggesting that it was supposed to debut one game earlier. However, while the notes are placed on these charts, they are not properly arranged.
