Prisoner

sunday afternoon and I just went for a walk

back in my cocoon I miss our silly talks

it’s so hard to let you go

though there’s no reason I should hold you back

I’m glad we said good-bye

monday morning another week is taking off

and I remember the night we met the first time

when you said: „gotta light?“,

I saw your smile and I fell for you right away

that’s when I lost my mind- I’m reliving it every day

you didn’t stay, I didn’t die

my life will go on

a new day has begun without you

I’m tryin not to glorify

it wasn’t always fun

after a while I’ll even forget your smile

it’s friday and I’m hanging `round in bars with some friends

suddenly it hits me that you never met them

of course, it would be nice to have you here with us

I gotta resist the urge to call to hear your voice

you didn’t stay, I didn’t die

my life will go on

a new day has begun without you

I’m tryin not to glorify

it wasn’t always fun

I was yours, I called you mine

a little loan for a little time

I was tempted to keep it

I was struck all of a heap

but the shadows in your eyes, made me realize

that you’re in disguise
