Lyrics
[Verse 1] Letting you go in the car, takin' you away from me last night And I could not try to follow you, I could not run after you last night You waved sadly in the dark, you was fading through the window's glass I can tell ya; you would not resist, any thing from any person comin' I could not tell you my baby, everything I need to say to you I can't let you go away like this, I don't wanna lose you in this way Rising rhythm in my heart, is gonna warn and gonna tell me that I cannot resist, (I) cannot my love; (I) shouldn't hold it, girl!

[Pre-Chorus] 'Cause Adam & Eve had been bound in their rule But Bonny and Clyde ran away from them soon Don't make the eyes of my girlfriend gettin' wet They're weepin' sad, they're weepin' tears of pain

[Chorus] Self control, this is the first time Self control, that I'm feeling pain in my heart Self control, my heart is sad 'n tired Self control, until I find you baby Self control, with a knife of freedom Self control, leavin' you I destroyed my heart Self control, I filled (it) up with sadness Self control, I broke it into pieces

When we will get worried about, the future, tomorrow We hope that the ask of Noah, will take us, away from these problems babe

[Verse 2] I know that it's not too late, that I can re-try to find you again Then I will knock on your locked door, that is closed by your unhappiness Let me touch your silky hair, let me caress you, my little friend Let my fingers caress you again, just one more time

[Pre-Chorus] 'Cause Adam & Eve had been bound in their rule But Bonny and Clyde ran away from them soon Don't make the eyes of my girlfriend gettin' wet They're weepin' sad, they're weepin' tears of pain

[Chorus] Self control, we can never learn Self control, from the books of our school Self control, we can never know Self control, what may come tomorrow Self control, cry your heart out Self control, laugh your heart out, your heart Self control, I will get you back, girl Self control, I will get my dream back

Your smile takes me in Paradise, it takes me, in Heaven It pulled me just out from the pit, just out, the pit of despair & pain
