Determination

Girl the last time I saw you, you were crying my name

When I put you on the spot, will you still feel the same

Show me some determination

Show me the measure of your dedication

I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration

Don't you break down on me, don't you break down on me

I'm looking for someone, someone strong enough to believe in

Everybody's looking for someone strong enough to stand on his feet

And never break down

I'll put my life on the line and believe what you say

I'll go out on a limb if you meet me halfway

Show me some determination

Show me the measure of your dedication

I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration

Don't you break down on me, don't you break down on me

I'm looking for someone to show me what they mean by devotion

Everybody's looking for someone prepared to put aside his emotion

And never break down

You're a new wave raver and you like to talk tough

But can you still cut the mustard when the going gets rough

Show me some determination

Show me the measure of your dedication

I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration

Don't you break down on me, don't you break down on me

I need a demonstration of your determination

Give me an indication of your determination

Yeah, oh oh oh

Determination

You've got to show me the measure of your dedication

I need to see, I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration

Don't you break down on me, don't you break down on me

Three days in the rain and I ain't had no sleep

But I won't break down now, I got a promise to keep

Showing my determination, 'cause that's the way I am

Determination

Show me the measure of your dedication

Just a reflection of your inspiration

Don't you break down on me, don't you break down on me
