I had a love and I had pain
Best believe they come hand in hand
'Cause Im a soldier for the love brigade
Im prepared to do battle with anythingI have control of my life you see
Lets keep it real not to make believe
I wont get caught with my foot in my mouth
And I wont let love take me outI have the power to do as I please
I take the blows and I do it with ease
I dish it out very hard theres no doubt
And I wont let love take me outI had to be a fool indeed
To let someone break me down to my knees
I was reckless with my heart you see
Theres no rule for that in my world and yet thats planSay, bye, bye to the teary brown eyes
And the big sad face
With an upside down smile
Its so beneath me, its so beneathSay, bye, bye to the meaningless days
And the loneliest nights
Just wasting my mind
Its so beneath me it cant control meI have control of my life you see
Lets keep it real not to make believe
I wont get caught with my foot in my mouth
And I wont let love take me outI have the power to do as I please
I take the blows and I do it with ease
I dish it out very hard theres no doubt
And I wont let love take me outI have control of my life you see

Wont take me out, wont take me out
