SELF-CONTROL IS THE PROMISES TO OURSELVES THAT WE KEEP Don’t give up what you want most For what you want now. “Heat of the Moment” --Asia I never meant to be so bad to you One thing I said that I would never do A look from you and I would fall from grace And that would wipe this smile right from my face Do you remember when we used to dance And incidence arose from circumstance One thing lead to another we were young And we would scream together songs unsung It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant The heat of the moment shone in your eyes And now you find yourself in ‘82 The disco hot spots hold no charm for you You can't concern yourself with bigger things You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings 'Cause it's the heat of the moment Heat of the moment, the heat of the moment Shone in your eyes And when your looks are gone and you're alone How many nights you sit beside the phone What were the things you wanted for yourself Teenage ambition you remember well It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant The heat of the moment shone in your eyes It was the heat of the moment The heat of the moment, heat of the moment Shone in your eyes Heat of the moment, heat of the moment Heat of the moment Heat of the moment “Dust on the Bottle” --David Lee Murphy Creole Williams lived down a dirt road Made homemade wine like nobody I know Dropped by one Friday night and said, "Can you help me, Creole? Got a little girl waitin' on me and I want to treat her right" I got what you need son, it's sittin’ down in the cellar He reached through the cobwebs as he turned on the light and said There might be a little dust on the bottle But don't let it fool ya about what's inside There might be a little dust on the bottle It's one of those things that gets sweeter with time She was sittin' in the porch swing as I pulled up the driveway My ol’ heart was racing as she climbed inside She slid over real close and drove down to the lake road Watched the sun fade in that big red sky I reached under the front seat and said, "Now here's something special It's just been waiting for a night like tonight" There might be a little dust on the bottle But don't let it fool ya about what's inside There might be a little dust on the bottle It's one of those things that gets sweeter with time You're still with me, and we've made some memories After all these years, there's one thing I've found Some say good love, well, it's like a fine wine It keeps getting better as the days go by There might be a little dust on the bottle But don't let it fool ya about what's inside There might be a little dust on the bottle It's one of those things that gets sweeter with time There might be a little dust on the bottle But don't let it fool ya about what's inside There might be a little dust on the bottle It's one of those things that gets sweeter with time Don't let it fool ya ENGL 30-2 – Literary Exploration What is your opinion of the idea that self-control is an essential human quality?
