One day you feel quite stable

The next you're comin' off the wall

But I think you should warn me

If you start heading for a fall

I see the problem start

I watch the tension grow

I see you keeping it to yourself

And then instead of reaching conclusions

I see you reaching for something else



No one can stop you now

Tonight you're on the loose

No one to tell you how

Tonight you're on the loose



I see no harm or danger in escaping

If the method suits the style

We put the mind on idle

And let the others take it for awhile

When the pace is too fast

And I think I won't last

You know where I'll be found

I'll be standing here beside myself

Getting ready for the final round



No one can stop you now

Tonight you're on the loose

No one to tell you how

Tonight you're on the loose



The time we feel most stable

Is the time we're comin' off the wall

And there's every indication

We may be heading for a fall

So let the problems start

And let the tension grow

We'll be keeping it to ourselves

And while they're busy reaching their conclusions

We'll be reaching for something else



No one can stop you now

Tonight you're on the loose

No one to tell you how

Tonight you're on the loose
