One day you feel quite stable   The next you're comin' off the wall   But I think that 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 me now   Tonight I'm on the loose   No one to tell me how   Tonight I'm 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 us now   Tonight we're on the loose   No one to tell us how   Tonight we're on the loose
