Alone from night to night you'll find me
too weak to break the chains that bind me
i need no shackles to remind me
i'm just a prisoner of love
For one command i stand and wait now
from one who's master of my fate now
i can't escape for it's too late now
i'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing those arms with me
although she has another, i can't have another for i'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
upon my knees to her i'm creeping
my very life is in her keeping
i'm just a prisoner of love
