I stole some hearts but dodged the bars out on the run
Committed crimes but not the time I should've done, oh no no
I'd feel the cops, that was enough to start laying low
Until the day I felt these chains not letting go
Call me a convict, I've been convicted
Serving the verdict, a life sentence
You've got me locked up
Go on and throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison
Your love is like a prison
Girl you're my judge, my jury, my executioner
No other way I'd have it babe, I'm your prisoner
Yeah, I'm your prisoner
You've got me locked up
Go on and throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison
Your love is like a prison
Call me a convict, I've been convicted
Serving the verdict, a life sentence
Ooh, you've got me locked up
Throw away the key
I ain't ever gonna leave this prison
You got me locked down
For twenty-four hours a day
I ain't ever gonna break this prison
Couldn't run, couldn't hide even if I tried
Girl I know you would find me and I'd wind up back in it
Your love is like a prison, yeah
Your love is like a prison
