Kris Kristofferson - The prisoner

Tekst :

I m thanking you for opening my eyes so clear
And sweeping old illusions from my soul
But most of all for
turning something simple and sincere
Into somethin jaded and as jive as rock n roll.

Chorus:
Ain t you always looked at lovin
like a four letter word
That I made up to make you ill at ease
I fought to free you from your castle of despair
Til I saw the prison wall was me

See the soul who calls itself a prisoner
Cause it s still too frightened to be free
I feel so much older now, and wiser
Ain t it sad how lonesome that can be.

Chorus:
Ain t you always looked at lovin
like a four letter word
That I made up to make you ill at ease
I fought to free you from your castle of despair
Til I saw the prison wall was me

Chorus:
Ain t you always looked at lovin
like a four letter word
That I made up to make you ill at ease
I fought to free you from your castle of despair
Til I saw the prison wall was me

    I believe

    I m lying here so incomplete,
    Hear me crying now!
    You were so near, now you´re out of reach,
    See me crying now!

    How can life just go on without you?
    Will you show me the way?
    I need someone to help me through
    and every night i pray!

    ´Cause...

    Born to be with you

    By your side, satisfied
    through and through
    cause i was born to be with you
    humming first verse
    wondrously, love can see
    so i knew that i was born to be with you
    humming and whistling last verse
    do i find
    peace...

    Dive in

    Just dive in, let the good times roll
    Nothing feels better than letting go
    Just dive in
    You know it feels good when you dive in

    You see a new day
    But you cant get out of bed
    Your heading nowere
    And got nowere to put your head
    And everthings spining its like your not living
    You cant even...

    Wheels of fire

    Born on the otherside
    Of the track
    Gotta get outa here
    I won t look back

    Born on the otherside
    Wild as a hurricane
    Living in overdrive

    Wheels of fire
    In my soul
    Wheels of fire
    Wheels of fire
    Let em roll

    Too fast to give a damn
    Stand my ground
    No one or anything
    To tie me down

    Born on the otherside
    Wild as a...
