Raf & Laura Branigan - Self Control

 

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
In the night, no contro-ol, through the wall somethin's breaking
Wearing white as you're walking down the street of my sou-oul

You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
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 a dream
(You take my self, you take my self contro-ol [x 4] )
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
(You take my self, you take my self contro-ol [x 4] )
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   [continues to end]
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
You take my self, you take my self contro-ol
