Sheena Easton Prisoner Lyrics

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

(Instrumental break)

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 repeats 2x

(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

chorus to fade
