I lost all faith in reason When no reason took a love from me So I'll ask you my friend If the stories were pretend You say 'I love you and I always will' You invented a brand new plan for the seasons How to turn those leaves of fall green But death you know it comes and goes, Ain't a friend or a foe Just as long as you know I love you and I always will But when you leave, I lose control And I hate to have to even lose control When you leave I lose control And I'd hate to have to leave and lose control It's alright Ma Christmas eve in the back of a church with a demon He turns and says to me 'All is well you never fell, Don't kiss and tell, I swear to hell I love you and I always will' But when you leave, I lose control And I hate to have to even lose control When you leave I lose control And I'd hate to have to leave and lose control It's alright Ma In a thousand years from now when they find Jesus In a monument of Elvis Presley I'll ask in the end If the stories were pretend you say, 'I love you and I always will' But when you leave, I lose control And I hate to have to even lose control When you leave I lose control And I'd hate to have to leave and lose control It's alright Ma But when you leave, I lose control And I hate to have to even lose control When you leave I lose control And I'd hate to have to leave and lose control It's alright Ma
