Prisoner

Nobody's light could ever blind me
Don't understand what's going on
I feel like I was struck by lighting
Stopped me dead in my tracks
Now there's no turning back
Feels like I'm walking through a mine field
I've gotta watch every step I take
'Cause now I'm just a weary solider
Who's losing the war
I can't fight anymore
Lay down your weapons I surrender
You shot me through the heart
Right through my defenses
Your bullet found its mark
Blew my world apart
Chain me forever
So I can be a prisoner of love
I always knew you'd be the danger
I shoulda run when I had the chance
Now there's no way I can escape you
As weak as I am
I've made my last stand
Lady down your weapons I surrender
You shot me through the heart
Right through my defenses
Your bullet found its mark
Blew my world apart
Chain me forever
So I can be a prisoner of love
And I don't know what's coming next
Never felt like this before
And it scares me half to death
I'm trusting you with my life
Your bullet found its mark
Blew my work apart
Chain me forever
Chain me forever
So I can be your prisoner
Lay down your weapons I surrender
You shot me through the heart
Right through my sefenses
Your bullet found it's mark
Ripped my world apart
Chain me forever
So I can be your prisoner of love
Prisoner of love
Bullet found it's mark
Blew my world apart
Chain me forever
So I can be your prisoner of love
