Chris Stamey - (A Prisoner of This) Hopeless Love

I'm a prisoner of this hopeless love
That will not go away
A prisoner of this hopeless love
That haunts me night and day
I was once so carefree, but now here I stay,
A prisoner of this hopeless love
Until my dying day

Once I lived on a mountaintop
Where I could see for miles
Now I'm in a valley deep, where no one ever smiles
I wake up each morning, just to wait for night to fall
A prisoner of this hopeless love
That I never shall resolve

If you find a love that's true,
Keep her in your heart
Jealousy and a wand'ring eye
Will tear your love apart
Will you listen to me, and hear what I've become?:
Just a prisoner of this hopeless love
Until my day is done

Just a prisoner of this hopeless love,
Afraid to face the sun
