Doves - Prisoners

When the day is done

It's just you and I

This is our last dance

One last fight

When there's blood on the stage

Could you face your fears

It all ends here

The minutes the hours days and years

What did you want

Can you give me a sign

Or give me your current state of mind

Old friend it's been a while

We're just prisoners of this life

We're just prisoners

We're just prisoners of this life

Although we won't be for long

We're just prisoners

In dusty halls and to the hollow shopping malls

To the endless rows of English Roses

If you gotta believe in someone don't make that person me

If you gotta let go of something then let go of me

And last night I dreamt

I was sent to a place of innocence

Hello old friend

We can't pretend we're not prisoners of this life

We're just prisoners

We're just prisoners of these times

Although it won't be for long

We're just prisoners

Hello old friend

It's been a while

It's me again

We're just prisoners of these times

It won't be for long

Won't be long

It won't be long
