Deep inside my mind there lies a place
where I am safe
from all the complications
love forever puts me through
Nowhere do I run because my heart
is so connected
to this thing in life I've somehow
grown accustomed to
Doors are always opening for me
to have the things I want
but many times I end up
on forbidden paths
It's you I need to show me where to go
and what to do
because it feels like my direction
will never last
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
take control of my mind (honey)
Take control
teach me how to love you right
Walk me beyond the walls that serve
as my protection,
open up my eyes to see
the love in you
Let me learn to grow
within the arms of your affection,
show me how to do the things that lovers do
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
take control of my mind (honey)
Take control
teach me how to love you right
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
take control of my mind (honey)
Take control
teach me how to love you right
If it feels like what I ask of you
is just a bit too much,
please understand just what I'm going through
For the first time in my life
I admit to giving up,
and I'm so afraid of losing you
Walk me beyond the walls that serve
as my protection,
open up my eyes to see
the love in you
Let me learn to grow
within the arms of your affection,
show me how to do the things that lovers do
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
take control of my mind (honey)
Take control
teach me how to love you right
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
take control of my mind (sugar)
Take control
teach me how to love you right
Take control
take control of my heart (baby)
Take control
show me how to get it started
Take control
