We’ve got the power
When you’re walking down the street
As a boy with your boyfriend
Show him that you love him so
Walk together hand in hand
Love is great, don’t be afraid
Be yourself, don’t hesitate
You are stronger than you think
We can colour this world pink
It doesn’t matter what they say
Let them yell and let them shout
When you’re lesbian or gay?
Kiss your lover and be proud!
Love is great, don’t be afraid
Be yourself, don’t hesitate
Say: enough is enough
Don’t you see? Love is love!
Cause we’ve got the power
We’ve got the power
Like a wildflower
O-oh we will grow
We’ve got the power
We’ve got the power
Like a wildflower
O-oh we will grow
You can be a Superman
And still wear a wedding gown
When you marry your Batman
Let nobody bring you down
Love is great, don’t be afraid
Be yourself, don’t hesitate
You can do all you can
Say I am what I am
So remember to be true
To the hero that you are
All that energy in you
Has worked miracles so far
So head up high and don’t be shy
You can reach for any star
You can do all you can
Say I am what I am
Cause we’ve got the power
We’ve got the power
Like a wildflower
O-oh we will grow
We’ve got the power
We’ve got the power
Like a wildflower
O-oh we will grow
De laatste tijd lijken we steeds vaker te worden geconfronteerd met geweld tegen LHBTI’s. Met deze song willen we als Dolly Bellefleur & Friends tijdens de Canal Parade 2018 alle LHBTI’s een hart onder de riem steken. We laten ons niet terugjagen in de kast. We gaan niet bij de pakken neerzitten. We’ve got the power! Together we are strong! Let love rule! Laat liefde regeren! Homo, hetero, lesbisch, transgender of (b)i? Let’s celebrate diversity!
