Parachute - Under Control Lyrics

I turn my head,
I can't shake the look you gave me
I'm as good as dead,
Cause all those eyes are all it takes
And all, I want, is you
So I pulled away
All I do is sit and wait
And I might as well
Write the words right on my face
That all, I want, is you
Always you

Because I've kept my heart under control
But lately, all this time its taken its toll
Said I tried to but I can't hold back what's deep in my soul
So darling please forgive me
I want you and you just have to know

And all my fears,
Creep and crawl across my skin
These four walls,
Are after me and moving in
And all, all that I want to do, oh
Is give up, give in,
And let this one see where it is
But I don't suppose I will

Because I've kept my heart under control
But lately, all this time its taken its toll
Said I tried to but I can't hold back what's deep in my soul
So darling please forgive me
I want you and you just have to know

That one of these days
I'm gonna find myself a way
I'll find the courage
and I'll find the grace
Oh and I'm going to know, just what to say
Oh and you'll walk on up
When you want this love
And you've had enough
And you keep giving up

Because I've kept my heart under control
But lately, all this time its taken its toll
Said I tried to but I can't hold back what's deep in my soul
Oh, So darling please forgive me
I want you and you just have to know

I've kept my heart, under control
It's under control baby
deep down in my soul
I want you and you just have to know
It's under control baby
Darling don't let this go
Baby girl ohh ohh
Its under control
