Lyrics Lost Control - Leo Sayer

Lost Control

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
