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 find 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.
