I've tried it all to get you back
Tried to forget the love we had
You keep runnin' far away
And I keep holding on yesterday
I keep hopin' you still care
I'm not happy anywhere
You're not worth it, anyway
But I'm in prison until you come back to stay

I need you to set me free
I don't know why you had to leave
Now you're off with someone else
And I'll be lonesome here all by myself
Loving you was just a crime
Come back to me I've done my time
I wish the past would set me free
And I could find someone that you could never be

Chorus: Your love is like a prison and you've thrown away the key
I hate being lonesome while you're running wild and free
I'll take back the things I said if you'll come back to me
It's cold & lonesome in this prison that your love turned out to be
