[Verse 1]
Time has come to say goodbye to broken memories
Locked inside like prisoners
In a place that no one sees
[Chorus]
I'm a prisoner, don't wanna lock myself away
Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay
It walks right out on you, out on you, ooh
[Verse 2]
Stayed up late with a friend of mine
Southern Comfort 'till dawn
Talked about the pain of love
I should've known from the start you were wrong
[Chorus]
I'm a prisoner, don't wanna lock myself away
Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay
It walks right out on you, out on you
[Bridge]
The sky is grey, it's rainin'
Like the storm in my heart
There ain't no use explainin'
'Cause I'm leavin' (leavin'), leavin' (leavin')
Leavin', gone
[Verse 3]
Tired blood runs through my veins
But I can't get no sleep
Locked my heart in these prison walls
This place I've got to leave
[Chorus]
I'm a prisoner, don't wanna lock myself away
Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay
It walks right out on you, out on you
I'm a prisoner, don't wanna lock myself away
Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay
It walks right out on you, out on you, ooh
[Outro]
(I'm a prisoner) Oh, you gotta let me go
(Just a prisoner) Just can't take no more
(Lonely, lonely)
(I'm a prisoner) Oh, you gotta let me leave
(It walks right out on you) Out on you
I'm a prisoner, don't wanna lock myself away
Just a prisoner, lonely, lonely
I'm a prisoner, just when you think love will stay
It walks right out on you, out on you
