Control yourself, love is all you need,
Control yourself, in your eyes.

Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Be apart of me, sanctify.
Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free.

In pictures of living, in bloodshot a vision,
Sweet miracles and strange circumstances.
I see the sun up, the showdown, the cool winds that blow down,
On the big beat that life-long romance is.
You've got a gun in your hand, you're making self plans,
Stay with me all through the night.

Control yourself, love is all you need.
Control yourself, open up your heart.

Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Be apart of me, sanctify.
Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free.

You can't stop the world for a boy or a girl,
Sweet victims of poor circumstances.
But you can pour back the love, sweeping down from above,
Giving hope and making more chances.
Well, I hope and I pray that maybe someday,
You'll come back down here and show me the way.

Control yourself, love is all you need.
Control yourself, open up your heart.
Open up your heart.

Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Sanctify yourself, sanctify,
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free.
