Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Looking counter-clockwise
Knowing what could happen
Any moment maybe you, maybe even you
Steadfast collapse
Always certain any moment
Maybe you, maybe you, maybe even you
Recline complete, dream too sweet
I can't do it, not with you
Not even with you, maybe never with you
[Verse 2]
And I'd sell my soul for total control
Yeah, I'd sell my soul for total control
[Verse 3]
Street wet tonight
Lovers touch, it's pure delight
Always certain any moment
Maybe even you
Stay in bed, stained sheets
My head hurts, I repeat
Maybe you, maybe you, maybe even you
[Verse 4]
And I'd sell my soul for total control
Yeah, I'd sell my soul for total control
Ooh, I'd sell my soul for total control, oh
Over you, over you
Total control over you
[Verse 5]
Street wet tonight
Lovers touch, it's pure delight
Always certain any moment
Maybe even you
Stay in bed, stained sheets
My head hurts, I repeat
Maybe you, maybe you, maybe even you
[Verse 6]
And I'd sell my soul for total control
Yeah, I'd sell my soul for total control
Ooh, I'd sell my soul for total control, oh
Over you, over you
Total control over you
Over you, total control over you
Over you, total control over you
Over you, over you
