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
