Restrain

(album: A Good Feelin' To Know - 1972)

Get on down off your ladder
Come out from the rain
Can't you see that there's no one to blame
And I got that feeling
That we're playing the same old game

You better get on the run
'Cause you know it's no fun
Restrain yourself

Can you tell me
Is it for certain or does it depend
Upon a feeling that refuses to bend
Victim of circumstance you'll say to the end
And you pay no mind
You just watch it pass by
Restrain yourself

Restrain yourself till you can't restrain no more
Can you tell me why is it you sigh
Is it because of a need you deny
So come on up and deliver
What you really know
Maybe discover what it feels like
To grow

But you're just a mirror
Reflecting a show
Quiet on the scene now
Come out and take a bow
Don't restrain yourself
