Prisoner of Love

Not rated yet.

Don't look back
Whatever it takes to save your life
I've believed I belonged to you for a long
time
And my heart says no, no one but you

Like a rescue on a darkened street
Love walked into town
I was a victim of my own self-persecution
I'm a prisoner of love-but I'm coming up for
air

CHORUS
Now don't be fooled by fools who promise
you
The world and all that glitters more fool you

I'm such a hungry man that I beg you over
and over and over and over
And I might take any highway to be there
with you
Even the best men shiver in their beds
I'm loving you above everything I have
I'm a prisoner of love-just stay square

Like a sermon on a blues guitar
Love walked into town
I was drowning so slowly
One step in front of your shadow
I'm a prisoner of love but I'm coming up for
air

CHORUS

I smell the sickness sown in this city
It drives me to hide you, yea, even deceive
you
I'm so afraid for you that
I'll break any thug that maps out your
passage to ruin
Even the best men shiver in their beds
I'm loving you above everything I have
I'm a prisoner of love-just stay square
