You walk into the room, everybody stares
The talking stops, there’s a silence there
The room is yours, you own it now
You’re in control and everybody down here knows
You got a place in my heart, I don’t want you there
But you come and you go, like a millionaire
You take a walk right across my soul
You’re in control and everybody down here knows

You’re the life and the death of the party
You got my heart right by the throat
You’re the life and the death of the party
When the stage lights rise
You start and stop the show

You love me bad, you love me good
You’re unimpressed, that’s understood
I lost it all, you knew I would
You’re in control and everybody down here knows

You’re the life and the death of the party
You got my heart right by the throat
You’re the life and the death of the party
When the stage lights rise
You start and stop the show

It’s just one night
It’s just one time
It’s just one hotel room
It’s just another dream
That can’t come true

You’re the life and the death of the party
You got my heart right by the throat
You’re the life and the death of the party
When the stage lights rise
You start and stop the show
