SELF CONTROL BY LAURA BRANIGAN

LYRICS

Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
In the night, no control
Through the wall something’s breaking
Wearing white as you’re walkin’
Down the street of my soul
You take my self, you take my self control
You got me livin’ only for the night
Before the morning comes, the story’s told
You take my self, you take my self control
Another night, another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to forget to play my role
You take my self, you take my self control
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
A safe night, I’m living in the forest of my dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never knows
A safe night, I’m living in the forest of a dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You take my self, you take my self control
You take my self, you take my self control

  1. Quivers the wind where
    sleeps her heart in
    the philanderings of your smile
    of once upon a time
    midnight have eyes
    and many faces lie
    unknown characters creep
    Gentle souls weep
    aimlessly she roams
    loosing control
    in dreams untold .

  2. She seduces dusk’s play
    captivating our souls
    tempted by her kiss
    day embraces her.

    She owns wraith’s moon
    starlight scatters within her
    controlling our passion
    we meddle in her darkness.

    She lures away our control
    coveting passion’s play
    blanketing our wicked
    till dreams of her find dawn.

  3. I have no
    Self control
    When it comes
    To you
    You hold
    my heart
    and soul
    In your hands
    I count on
    You to keep
    them safe
    Till the night
    Comes and steal
    Them away
    We might
    Have no
    Tomorrow
    Let’s steal
    Our love
    Away from
    This sideshow

  4. Beauty
    You take my thought control
    I can’t help but lose control
    I want you to take hold
    I see you and I lose control
    I want you and you take my heart and soul
    Oh beauty day and night
    Oh beauty what a sight
    I fight myself every night
