It Only Takes One Bar (To Make a Prison)
Last night she wasn't sleeping when I came slipping in
I knew I had it coming 'cause she knew where I'd been
She said, a part of me walks out that door every time you leave
So remember this while you're losing me

It only takes one bar to make a prison
And you've been doing too much time away from home
She said it takes two hearts to hold a love together
But it only takes one fool to be alone

She said, I've sat here in the darkness one too many times
And stealing thoughts of holding you has been my only crime
Right then I realized she'd always been the key
And locked up in her arms is the only time I'm free

It only takes one bar to make a prison
And you've been doing too much time away from home
She said it takes two hearts to hold a love together
But it only takes one fool to be alone

It only takes one bar to make a prison
And it only takes one fool to be alone
