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 . . .
