In the city down below the denizens are creeping
Frail and phantom shadows as the night comes falling down
Well, I only know my heart, I know how much I miss you
It's empty here without you in the stillness I have found

Love takes no prisoners
Sometimes it comes like a thief in the night
And love shows no mercy
It only knows that I need you, I need you in my life

Soft are the chains, your memory has bound me
And now that you're my reason there is something I must know
If I endure this pain will you meet me in the morrow?
Like a magnet you're electric and I cannot let you go

Love takes no prisoners
Sometimes it comes like a thief in the night
And love shows no mercy
It only knows that I need you, I need you in my life

It only knows that I need you
Oh, love takes no prisoners
Sometimes it makes me just want to run away
