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 trace in where I'm going
When the weariness is showing
It's 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, who, you, 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 wargame.
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, who, you, you, it's you
The motivation is you
Now I know it's you.
