Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I got a melody
Now I'm trying to find the words to
Put things in reverse
If you could see what I see
(You could)
Then you know just what you are
You're everything I want
(You're everything that I want)
Baby girl talk a way you're not supposed to
Your body can do the rest
(You know that)
And if you need a little mind vacation
Press your cheek against my chest
Do you hear the rhythm of my heart
Through the beating of my soul
When I'm with you I lose control
(I lose control)
Your breath is wrapped around my lungs
And your legs around my thoughts
When I'm with you I lose it (Yeah)
When I'm with you I lose control

When I'm with you I lose control

When I'm with you I lose control (Yeah)

When I'm with you I lose control (Yeah)

When I'm with you I lose control

Give me another second to
Try to catch my breath
My mind is in a mess
You should be on top of this
But you got me on the run
Now I'm tripping on your love
Baby girl talk a way you ain't supposed to
Your body can do the rest
(Your body can do the rest)
But if you need a little mind vacation
Press your cheek against my chest
Do you hear the rhythm of my heart
Through the beating of my soul
When I'm with you I lose control
(Lose control)
Your breath is wrapped around my lungs
And your legs around my thoughts (Oh)
When I'm with you I lose it
When I'm with you I lose control

When I'm with you I lose control
(Lose control, lose control)
When I'm with you I lose control
(All day, all night, I lose control)
(Through the beating in my soul)
When I'm with you I lose control
(All day, all night, I lose control)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
