From time to time, I lose all faith in what I'm doing
Every avenue I'm pursuing
Seems to be a dead end
And from time to time, I lose all track of where I'm going
When the weariness is showing,
Then I need a good friend
Who's building out my confidence
Who's speaking out in my defence
Who's giving me the strength to carry on
You are my motivation
I'd be helpless if it wasn't for you
You are my motivation
Motivation, motivation
It's you, ooh-ooh-you, it's you
The motivation is you
Now I know it's you!
And every day we fight a battle for survival
We treat our fellow man as a rival
Life is like a war game
And every day we take a step in the wrong direction
Did we forget about love and affection
Isn't it a crying shame
Now me, I've always struggled through
Was losing ground 'till I met you
You gave me back a reason to believe
You are my motivation
I'd be helpless if it wasn't for you
You are my motivation
Motivation, motivation
It's you, ooh-ooh-you, its you
The motivation is you
Now I know it's you!
(You are my... motivation...)
You are my motivation
I'd be helpless if it wasn't for you (...wasn't for you)
You are my motivation
Motivation, motivation
You are my motivation!
(You are my motivation
I'd be helpless if it wasn't for you)
You are my motivation!
(You are my motivation)
You are my... you are my.. you are my motivation!
(...motivation...)
You are my... you are my.. you are my motivation!
