It wasn't just your innocence
No, it wasn't temptation
It was just your own way
Of placin' the blame on me

Stop thinkin' that it's all the name
You keep trading your love for pain
Someday her answer will come
'Cause there ain't no way to escape

Baby, I'm a prisoner, oh, chained by love
It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
Chained by love

The answer for your loneliness
Is only frustration
So you gave it all away
By placin' the blame on me

Remember how it used to be
Your lies won't tie that easily
Something's wrong, why can't you see?
There ain't no way to escape

Baby, I'm a prisoner, oh, chained by love
It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
Chained by love

It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
... misery
'Cause I'm a prisoner

Did my time so let me be
Let me go
You're holding me

Someday, her answer will come, you wait
Something's wrong, why can't you see
That there ain't no way to escape
Escape

Baby, I'm a prisoner, oh, chained by love
It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
Chained by love

It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
Chained by love

It's so easy to see I can never be free
I'm a prisoner chained by love
