tried to understand just what we are
searching in the powders and the country bars
then you showed me how to care
you cleaned me up and made me a man again
suddenly you disappeared and i found myself back on the road
thoughts of you just tear my mind apart
i want to end but don't know where to start
i dream of all the times you showed me how to share
now it's much too late to be a man again
the bottle seems the only way
"cos i'm a prisoner of passion, yeah
just a sucker for emotion
a prisoner of passion, yeah
on my own
in search of a sanity i know that i'll never find
lost in the labyrinth in my mind
another weary pilgrim on that broken trail
stranded in a land where it never rains
and the bottle feels like the holy grail
"cos i'm a prisoner of passion, yeah
just a sucker for emotion
a prisoner of passion, yeah
on my own
"cos i'm a prisoner of passion, yeah
just a sucker for emotion
a prisoner of passion, yeah
just a fool without a notion
