Hoping and wishing and praying you could
Free yourself if you only would
Stop trying to stop yourself
Playing the part you always thought you should
But Lord, don’t it feel good
To stop trying to stop yourself
Don’t try to stop yourself
Don’t try to stop yourself

Bring on the dance number give a high kick
Who knew this much fun could be dangerous
Stop trying to stop yourself
How can he make your name sound like a kiss
Girl, you never knew love like this
So stop trying to stop yourself
Don’t try to stop yourself
Don’t try to stop yourself

While he did the taking, the cheating, the lying,
She did the making-believing and trying
He took her fun, left her questioning-whying
It’s over, it’s done, no more trying to stop yourself

It’s over, it’s done, now there’s no use in trying
Just give it all up,
Don’t try to stop yourself
Don’t try to stop yourself
