Lyrics

There are some things that are out of my control
Like the wind and the rain and the snow
You've completely overpowered my soul
There are some things that are out of my control
You make it summer every day of the year
One glance from you and the clouds disappear
Like forces of nature, we were meant to be here
Now this flame in my heart burns for you
There are some things that are out of my control
Passing time, the seasons growing old
You've completely overpowered my soul
There are some things that are out of my control
You make it summer every day of the year
One glance from you and the clouds disappear
Like forces of nature, we were meant to be here
Now this flame in my heart burns for you
There are some things that are out of my control
Like the wind and the rain and the snow
You've completely overpowered my soul
There are some things that are out of my control
There are some things that are out of my control
Written by: Simon Johnson, Stephen Darrell Smith
