You want to keep yourself from me
When I don't have the strength; I'm just a mirror of what I see

You're a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know

What I say I'm all about, all about
(Repeat chorus)

Tell me what it is (Tell me what it is)
