My Hands Are Tied

[Verse 1]
She came here to see me today in prison where I have to stay
But this time she came here to tell me goodbye
Pretending that I understood, I held back the tears best I could
But I know that she knew I wanted to cry

[Chorus]
'Cause my hands are tied
I'm locked here inside
I want her, I need her, I love her
But my hands are tied

[Verse 2]
Her visits kept my world alive, our love found a way to survive
But now it's all over, I've lost her for good
She waited with arms open wide till somebody else stepped inside
But I know she waited as long as she could

[Chorus]
'Cause my hands are tied
I'm locked here inside
I want her, I need her, I love her
But my hands are tied
