I run a comb through my hair
And step out in the street
And the citys the color of flame
In the mid-summer heat
Oh yeah
Jennifers got her daddys car,
Shes playing "Uptown" on the stereo
We go cruisin so close,
The way they did long ago
My darlin
(Turn) turn the radio up for that sweet sound
Hold me close never let me go
(Keep) keep this feelin alive
Make me lose control
Baby, baby
(When) when I look in your eyes, I go crazy
Fevers high with the lights down low
(So take) take me over the edge
Make me lose control
We put the top down and park neath the moon
In the sky
And the wind is so hot in our hair, like a fire in July
Whoa yeah
Jennifers singin "Stand By Me,"
And she knows every single word by heart
Was love always this good?
Or could this be just the start?
Whoa darlin
(Turn) turn the radio up for that sweet sound
Hold me close never let me go
(Keep) keep this feelin alive
Make me lose control
Baby, baby
(When) when I look in your eyes, I go crazy
Fevers high with the lights down low
(So take) take me over the edge
Make me lose control
"Be My Baby" comes on, and were movin in time
And the heat from your touch makes me feel
Like Im losing my mind
Whoa yeah
(And then they played) "Back In My Arms" again
(We close our eyes) we start rememberin when
(We start to kiss) and now the feelings intense
And we just pray that this night never ends
Wohohoho, my darlin
(Turn) turn the radio up for that sweet sound
Hold me close never let me go
Keep this feelin alive
Make me lose control
Baaby
When I look in your eyes, I go crazy
Fevers high with the lights down low
(So take) take me over the edge
Make me lose control
Baby, baby
(Turn) turn the radio up for that sweet sound
Hold me close never let me go
(Keep) keep this feelin alive
Make me lose control
When I look in your eyes, I go crazy
Fevers high with the lights down low
(So take) take me over the edge
Make me lose control
Baby, baby
(Turn) turn the radio up for that sweet sound
Hold me close never let me go
(Keep) keep this feelin alive
Make me lose control

１９４９年出生於俄亥俄州的艾瑞克卡門（Eric Carmen）是美國著名創作歌手
１９６７年出道 先加入Cyrus Erie樂團
６０年代末期轉到流行搖滾團The Raspberries擔任主唱 出了幾首暢銷曲
１９７５年The Raspberries解散 卡門開始個人事業
隨即以〔All My Myself〕走紅 拿到美國亞軍 銷售百萬（英國＃１２）
進入８０年代後 卡門淡出歌壇 事業走緩
１９８７／１９８８年交接之際 卡門為〔熱舞十七／Dirty Dancing〕演唱插曲〔Hungry Eyes〕
登上美國流行榜得到＃４（副榜──成人抒情榜亞軍）
讓他的事業成功東山再起
１９８８年春天 艾瑞克打鐵趁熱, 推出下一首單曲［Make Me Lose Control／讓我失去控制］
此曲由他跟Dean Pitchford合寫 旋律討好
Jimmy Ienner製作成一首軟式搖滾 展現卡門那富有渲染力的唱腔
［Make Me Lose Control］拿下美國流行榜得到＃３──這是卡門事業第二高主打, 僅次於〔All My Myself〕的亞軍
（其中銷售榜冠軍, Airplay榜＃４）
在副榜──成人抒情榜則拿下三週冠軍
國際方面：加拿大亞軍 澳大利亞＃８ 南非＃１０ 紐西蘭＃１８ 英國＃９２
雖然連續兩首暢銷曲, 但卡門卻沒順勢推出全新錄音室專輯
而是發行精選輯［The Best of Eric Carmen］, 收錄［Make Me Lose Control］在內的事業熱門曲（精選輯在［Make Me Lose Control］出版數月前推出, 在此曲走紅後, 又再版將此曲收入）
之後艾瑞克再度淡出歌壇,直到１９９８年才在日本推出錄音室大碟［Winter Dreams］（延到２０００年在美國出版）
