Imprisoned Heart

IMPRISONED HEART - Written by Carroll Bryant

You know that I was just one of the living

There wasn't anything that could ever get to me 

And I have done my fair share of taking 

Giving was just a fantasy in somebody's dream

Sometimes I wish that I would have just died that night

Instead of ever having seen such a beautiful face

The night we met was the night that one of heavens angels cried

How could the perfect one be of such imperfect age?

And I could spend the rest of my life

Mourning the death of a love that could never be 

And I could barter in exchange for a sacrifice 

Just to kneel before the gods of a world in ecstasy 

And still I wouldn't get any relief 

My heart's in a prison and doomed to never be released

And still I would be lost at sea

My heart's in a prison dying for your love that I need

I could swear that you're the perfect creation 

You haven't done anything for me to not believe it

When I first saw you I knew I was in danger

And it was dangerous

And then everything was right in the universe again

Sometimes I wish that I would have just died that night

Instead of ever having seen such a beautiful face

The night we met was the night heavens angels did fight

Over the cruelty of displacement that was gods biggest injustice

Biggest mistake

And I could spend the rest of my life

Mourning the death of a love that could never be 

And I could charter a flight to paradise 

Drink margarita's with some bunnies on the beach 

And still I wouldn't get any relief 

My heart's in a prison and doomed to never be released

And still I would be lost at sea

My heart's in a prison dying for your love that I need

I could choose to be sad all the time

With my only joy being you on my mind

I guess I could be mad for the rest of my life

But it still wouldn't change a thing

And it still wouldn't make things right

You know that I was just one of the living

There wasn't anything that could ever get to me 

And I have done my fair share of taking 

Giving was just a fantasy in somebody's dream

Sometimes I wish that I would have just died that night

Instead of ever having seen such a beautiful face

The night we met was the night that one of heavens angels cried

How could the perfect one be of such imperfect age?

And I could spend the rest of my life

Mourning the death of a love that could never be 

And I would barter in exchange for a sacrifice 

Just to kneel before the gods of a world in ecstasy 

And still I wouldn't get any relief 

My heart's in a prison and doomed to never be released

And still I would be lost at sea

My heart's in a prison dying for your love that I need
