Lyrics

control

I got my friend to teach me French
So I could speak true to you, ah
Goodnight, sweet dreams, bonne nuit
(Bonne nuit, chouchou)
Funny that I tried (I tried)

I don't need a seatbelt
I don't need the lights turned low
Baby, we can keep it
Or, baby, we can take it off
Wanna go everywhere with my got-to-be girl
Though there's gonna be turbulence

When I'm with you
I want you to be the remote
'Cause you're out of control
You can get whatever you want from me, 'cause
You'll be the pilot, I'll let you fly it
All night long (All night long)

Look at our clothes, they wrap around
Each other like lovers do, ah
My jeans around your (Around your)
Polo, polo, polo neck, polo neck

I don't need a seatbelt
I don't need the lights turned low
Baby, we can keep it
Or, baby, we can take it off
Wanna go everywhere with my got-to-be girl
Though there's gonna be turbulence

When I'm with you
I want you to be the remote
'Cause you're out of control
You can get whatever you want from me, 'cause
You'll be the pilot, I'll let you fly it
All night long (All night long)
You'll be the pilot, I'll let you fly it
All night long (All night long)

When I'm with you
I want you to be the remote
'Cause you're out of control
You can get whatever you want from me, 'cause
You'll be the pilot, I'll let you fly it
All night long (All night long)
You'll be the pilot (You'll be the pilot)
I'll let you fly it (I'll let you fly it)
All night long (All night long)
You'll be the pilot (You'll be the pilot)
I'll let you fly it (I'll let you fly it)
All night long (All night long)

The bird is flying low over the lake
And you told me that you were mine
And now I'm flying like a bird
Upside down, upside down

    Shura - I Got Too Sad For My Friends

    'I Got Too Sad For My Friends' represents an artist brave enough to document the smiles and tears behind the melancholy.

    Shura: Side effects

    Relationships, eh? Not easy. But - it seems - fertile ground for a stonkingly brilliant second album for the mighty Shura. As she returns with ‘forevher’, prepare to anoint the leader of a whole new alt-pop religion.
