Day 29: The Power

A song from the hugely successful Believe album in 1999. About the outfit, it's "Braveheart meets Bozo the clown!" as Cher joked herself on the Believe tour.

A king is crying from his throne
He had a queen but now she's gone
What is this magic that we seek?
The mighty strong to mighty weak

Every good girl hears it
Every bad boy fears it
No matter what I see
I believe, I believe

The power touches me
The power sets us free
The power holds my hand
The power drives me crazy

A flower grows, an old man dies
And through it all we still survive
A poor man screams but no one hears
Ain't nothing changed much through the years

Every bad day needs it
Every good day breeds it
No matter how it feels
When it's real,you know it's real
It's stronger than anybody any man has ever made


The power touches me
The power helps us see
The power holds my hand, yeah
The power drives me crazy

It won't take long to understand
Just how lucky I am

Open up your eyes and see
It won't take long to understand
Just how lucky I am, ooh

Every good boy needs it
Every bad girl breeds it
No matter how I feel
Oh, When it's real you know it's real
It's stronger than anybody any man has ever made

Hey, hey
The power holds my hand, yeah
(The power) Drives me crazy
The power sets us free, yeah
The power holds my hand, yeah
The power drives me crazy

If I believe, and you believe, and we believe
Everybody's gonna be alright, alright
In just my mind
