Eddy Arnold
A Prison Without Walls
[Verse 1]
I don't need chains or iron bars to tell me I'm not free
I'm in a prison without walls
I'm living in the memory of a love that used to be
Here in a prison without any walls
[Verse 2]
I come and go but still I know I'll never break away
For deep inside my heart is tied to dreams of yesterday
'Til you bring back your love sweetheart there's no escape of me
I'm in a prison without any walls
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
You closed a door with your goodbye that tells me night and day
I'm in a prison without any walls
Could loving you be such a crime that I should have to stay
Here in a prison without any walls
[Verse 4]
I tell myself I won't be blue I'll find another love
But when I look at someone else it's you I'm thinking of
Come back sweetheart and break these ties I can't go on this way
I'm in a prison without any walls
