Prisoner

Sheena Easton · Other Songs - Sheena Easton

Time has come to say goodbye to broken memories

Locked inside like prisoners, in a place that no one sees



[Chorus]

I'm a prisoner, go on and lock myself away

Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely

I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay



It walks right out on you, out on you (oooh)

Stayed up late with a friend of mine, sodden comfort till dawn

Talked about the pain of love,

should've known from the start you were wrong



[Chorus]



The sky is grey, it's rainin', like the storm in my heart

There ain't no use explainin', 'cause I'm leavin', leavin', leavin', gone



Tired blood runs through my veins, but I can't get no sleep

Locked my heart in these prison walls, this place I got to leave



[Chorus: x2]



(I'm a prisoner) Oh, you gotta let me go

(Just a prisoner) Just can't take no more (lonely, lonely)

(I'm a prisoner) Oh, you gotta let me leave

(Walks right out on you) Out on you



[Repeat Chorus]
