My heart's a prison of mem'ries oh how I wish they would escape
My mind's a prison of mem'ries they're here to stay they'll never go away
My love for you was always true dear I told no lies or alibis to you
But now we're through dear
You found someone new so my prison turn starts soon
They're locked up tight the sentence was a life the mem'ries you left me with
I wish they'd leave but why should I grieve with mem'ries like these to relive
My heart's a prison of mem'ries...
[ steel ]
They're locked up tight...
My heart's a prison of mem'ries...
