No Control

From FOUR (The Ultimate Edition)2014

Written by Jamie Scott

Lyrics

No Control

Oh-oh-oh-oh Ooh, ooh

Stained coffee cup Just a fingerprint of lipstick's not enough Sweet where you lay Still a trace of innocence on pillowcase

Waking up Beside you, I'm a loaded gun I can't contain this anymore I'm all yours, I've got no control, no control

Powerless And I don't care it's obvious I just can't get enough of you The pedal's down, my eyes are closed, no control

Ooh Oh-oh-oh-oh Ooh

Taste on my tongue I don't wanna wash away the night before In the heat, where you lay I could stay right here and burn in it all day

Waking up Beside you, I'm a loaded gun I can't contain this anymore I'm all yours, I've got no control, no control

Powerless And I don't care it's obvious I just can't get enough of you The pedal's down, my eyes are closed, no control

Lost my senses I'm defenseless Her perfume's holding me ransom Sweet and sour Heart devoured Lying here, I count the hours

Waking up Beside you, I'm a loaded gun I can't contain this anymore I'm all yours, I've got no control, no control

Powerless And I don't care it's obvious I just can't get enough of you The pedal's down, my eyes are closed, no control

Oh-oh-oh-oh No control Oh-oh-oh-oh No control

Powerless And I don't care it's obvious I just can't get enough of you The pedal's down, my eyes are closed, no control

What were Harry Styles’ unreleased songs ‘Anna’ and ‘Medicine’?

Harry Styles introduced ‘Medicine’ and ‘Anna’ at a 2018 tour show in Basel, offering two different glimpses beyond his debut album’s tracklist.

Niall Horan has honoured Liam Payne with ‘End of an Era’ tour tribute

Niall Horan played Liam Payne’s voice during ‘End of an Era’ at the Birmingham opening night of his Dinner Party Live on Tour.

Louis Tomlinson’s solo story has always made room for the crowd

From ‘All Of Those Voices’ to a headline show at The O2, Louis Tomlinson’s solo career has repeatedly framed success as something built with, rather than simply delivered to, his audience.

One Direction have released a joint statement on the passing of Liam Payne, while Louis Tomlinson pays tribute to "the kind brother I'd longed all my life for"

"We will miss him terribly. We love you Liam."
