Yes, it's quite normal to have little or even no control of one's own dream. This is because he/she has a pretty low dream recall or the dream itself is not really that vivid. But don't worry, by improving your dream recall and your awareness, you can control your dream without reaching the point where you are already awake. I suggest you get yourself a dream journal and record any dream you had in the past night. This way, you'll be able to exercise your dream recalling ability thus improving your dream's vividness which in turn, makes it easier for you to control your dream body.
