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
