Well I knew a girl, she was the child of the devil
It took me so damn long to see
That she could wrap me around her fingers
Til there was nothin` left of poor old me
I had a night job down in the city
Where the hours seem to turn into days
The frozen clock on the wall it wouldn`t move at all
I had to make my getaway
So I laid my cards down on the table
I had a feelin` I was ready and able
Now I`m livin` it my own way
I hear the music that I gotta play
It`s so easy wakin` up to the day
With my life back in my own hands
There are times when I can`t sing this song
When the days and nights have gone all wrong
But with somebody to love, a little help from above
I`ll get my feet back on the ground before long
Chorus
Back in my own hands
Back in my own hands
Back in my own hands
There are times when I can`t sing this song
When the days and nights are always goin` wrong
But with somebody to love, a little help from above
I`ll get my feet back on the ground before long
Chorus
Now I`m livin` it my own way
I hear the music I gotta play
It`s so easy wakin` up to the day
With my life back in my own hands
Back in my own hands
Back in my own hands
