Lost Control - Leo Sayer

You were out there

And I thought that you were

For the asking

I’ve never been unfair

But I was looking for a love

That would be everlasting

Three years of taking

Anything that I could find

A one night stand -- you understand

Wasn’t what I had in mind

Believe me that I lost control

I wanted you and that was

All that really mattered

Oh, I lost control

I couldn’t tell this whole world

Had shattered

Lover, I could see

Was what you whipped on me

And I lost my control

Now he was your man

He had his faults

But you done your best to stick by him

But then one day

Bam!

bam!

he shot you down

Without anyone around who

Would try him

Three years of taking

Anything that he could find

A one night stand he didn’t understand

It wasn’t what you had in mind

And I believe you

Lost control

You ran to me and it felt

Like a whole new feeling

You lost control

You had an open wound

And I was so good at healing

But all you could see

Was the good side of me
