Prisoner Lyrics


I'm down in a hole, baby
You're lockin me up
And this pain I feel
Won't set me free from you

Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
I am a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, and I was caught off guard

I'm helpless, and I'm hurting
I'm affixed to your moves and you're shakin me down
You got me locked up
I'm in the doghouse
You had to chain me up cause I was fallin for you
I'm a hopeless situation
I've been cut to the bone and I'm coming for more
So if you need me I'll be waiting
For the girl that I love to be a coming around

This lockless cage you trapped me in
Has brought me to my knees

Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
I am a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, and I was caught off guard
Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
I am a prisoner of your heart

Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
Cause I'm a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, but then I locked up hard
I am a prisoner of your heart
Takin' it slow, and I was caught off guard
