The Power Songtext
von Elton John

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

I have sold myself through and through
I have walked in the darkness too
Felt a red sun, the living proof
Washed my hands in the honest truth

I have carried this weight time after time
I have bettered the dumb and the blind
I′ve seen dignity fail and colors run
Seen justice denied by the voice of a gun

And we walk, yes, we walk
And we walk with the power every day
Never letting the light slip away

Reaching out (reaching out) reaching in (reaching in)
Touching truth (touching truth), touching skin (and touching skin)
Never letting the light slip away
And we walk (and we walk) with the power every day


If my faith is a fire, then burn, baby, burn
We've held fire (fire) long enough to learn
That heat beneath hope is a healing light
Kept alive by the flames of night (flames of night)

Walk tall in the power, day after day
Never, never, never (never, never) lose sight of the way
See the dawn come and the dusk hang
See the power (see the power rise) rise from an open hand

And we walk (and we walk) and we walk (and we walk)
And we walk with the power every day
Never letting the light slip away

Reaching out (reaching out), reaching in (reaching in)
Touching truth (touching truth) and touching skin (touching skin)
Never letting the light slip away
And we walk (and we walk) with the power every day

Walk with the power
(Yeah, we walk) walk with the power
(Yeah) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, we walk (and we walk) yeah, we walk (yes, we walk)
Yes, we walk with the power every day
Never letting the light slip away


Oh, reaching out (reaching out), reaching in (reaching in)
Touching truth (touching truth) and touching skin (touching skin)
Never letting the light slip away
And we walk (and we walk) with the power every day

Walk
Walk, walk power
Walk with the power
Walk, walk

Walk
Walk, walk power
Walk with the power
Walk, walk

Walk
Walk, walk power
Walk with the power
Walk

Walk, walk power
Walk with the power
Walk

Walk, walk
Walk with the power
Walk with the power (walk)
Walk

Walk
Walk, walk power
Walk with the power
Walk
