[Verse 1]
I can't get over your love
No matter how hard life seems
There's a light in my dreams
Thanks to you
My friends keep asking me why
There's such a smile on my face
There's a home at my place
Thanks to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't want anything from you
Turn on your motor of love
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Verse 2]
I can't get over your love
No matter how lost I feel
I know my love is real
Thanks to you
You simply reached out your hand
And touched me deep in my soul
I came in out of the cold
Thanks to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't steal anything from you
You give me more than enough
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Bridge]
There was a time
When I was down and counted out
Well I remember I felt so bad
I nearly threw away
Nearly threw away the keys
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Outro]
Your powerful motor, strong revolution
Constantly turning, over and over
Your powerful motor, strong revolution
Constantly turning, over and over
I can't get over your love
No matter how hard life seems
There's a light in my dreams
Thanks to you
My friends keep asking me why
There's such a smile on my face
There's a home at my place
Thanks to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't want anything from you
Turn on your motor of love
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Verse 2]
I can't get over your love
No matter how lost I feel
I know my love is real
Thanks to you
You simply reached out your hand
And touched me deep in my soul
I came in out of the cold
Thanks to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't steal anything from you
You give me more than enough
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Bridge]
There was a time
When I was down and counted out
Well I remember I felt so bad
I nearly threw away
Nearly threw away the keys
[Chorus]
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
Motor of love, motor of love
Heavenly father look down from above
I can't get over your powerful
Motor of love
[Outro]
Your powerful motor, strong revolution
Constantly turning, over and over
Your powerful motor, strong revolution
Constantly turning, over and over
