Prisoner Lyrics by Jaguar

Power Games

1983

You've got the power to set me free
Why don't you give it, give it to me
I'd sell you short is that what you thought
Don't you see there's no mystery
You'll change you mind we're so short of time
I've drawn a sentence my life's on the line
I'm gonna die I've got to get out
I'm gonna try just let me shout

I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out
I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out

Your bright blue eyes are staring at me
Closer now than they'll ever be
My minds running wild there's nobody there
Reach up to the sky, no one seems to care

This empty cell so dark and lonely
Cold thick stone and bars surround me
I'm getting weaker by the hour
Outside I hear the distant laughter

I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out
I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out

You've got the power to set me free
Why don't you give it, give it to me
I'd sell you short is that what you thought
Don't you see there's no mystery
You'll change you mind we're so short of time
I've drawn a sentence my life's on the line
I'm gonna die I've got to get out
I'm gonna try just let me shout

I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out
I'm a prisoner, set me free
I'm a prisoner, let me out
