  If it's just

       
 a prison,    

              
I'm locked in

sorry, I said

(SAME AS VERSE 1)

Your powers of persuasion, those quizzical eyes
Have tired and tied me with innocent guile.
I would have walked out, and after all the tears we shed
I should have stalked out, gone and painted the town bright red
But instead, So sorry I said

(BRIDGE)

            
  How tough it

  And you say
