Doves - Prisoners Lyrics

When the day is done

It's just you and I

This is our last dance

One last fight

When there's blood on the stage

Could you face your fears?

It all ends here

The minutes the hours

Days and years



What you want?

Can you give me a sign?

Or give me your current state of mind?

Old friend it's been a while

We're just prisoners of this life



Just prisoners

We're just prisoners in this life

Though it won't be for long

We're just prisoners



In dusty halls

To the hollow shopping malls

To the endless rows of English roses

If you've got to believe in someone

Don't make that person me

If you've got to let go of something

Then let go of me



And last night I dreamt

I was sent to a place of innocence

Hello old friend

We can't pretend



We're not prisoner of this life

Just prisoners

We're just prisoners of these times

Although it won't be for long

We're just just prisoners



Hello old friend

It's been a while

It's me again

We're just prisoners of these times

But it won't be for long



Won't be long

Won't be long
