Lyrics of Prisoner by Mariah Carey
chorus
You don't think that I'll be strong enough
No, baby now
I won't the prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)
verse
Maybe you don't think that I'll be strong enough
But I'm not gonna be the prisoner of your love
I know you're lyin', denyin'
All of your actions, so listen up
'Cause here's my reaction
verse
Here comes the night
No more living in the shadow of your love
This is my life
Always tried so hard to keep me down
But now I'll rise above
Those empty lies
Stop pretending that my accusations
Take ya by surprise
I've realized
Now I'm ending all the secrecy
I see through your disguise
All the dreams we planned
I believed so I held on
I understand... yes
So when the morning comes
You know that I'll be gone
chorus
You don't think that I'll be strong enough
Nooo baby now
I won't be a prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)
verse
No longer blind
I can focus on deception
Used to keep me by your side
I read your mind
Don't believe it's all a mystery
There's nothing you can hide
It's all defined
There's nothing you can tell me now
Could change the way I feel inside
pre-chorus
All the dreams we planned
I believed so I held on
I understand, yeah
So when the morning comes
You know that I'll be gone
chorus
(You don't think) that I'll be strong enough
No, baby now
(I won't be) the prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)
I'm just not the girl you thought I was
Not gonna be a prisoner
I won't be the prisoner of your love
Of your
Love
bridge
Don't wanna be a prisoner
I don't wanna be a prisoner
No
Mmmh
Don't wanna be a prisoner
I don't wanna be a prisoner
verse
So if you wanna be my love
You can't be a liar
Play around or when
You see me and then say "Mariah I miss you"
Expect me to hug and kiss you?
Don't mean to diss' you
But I guess I'm not the kind of girl you thought I was
I've had enough and now I'll see ya later 'cause
Boy maybe you dont think that I'll be strong enough
But I won't be a prisoner baby of your love
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more
chorus
No no, baby now
I won't be
(No no no)
Prisoner of your loooove
(Prisoner of your love)
(I'm just not) the girl you thought I was
Oh
Not gonna be a prisoner
(Not gonna be)
(I won't be) the prisoner of your
Love
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah
outro
I'm not one of those girls who'll wait around
Cryin' 'cause your playin dirty all over town
You can't do that
I'm not a door mat
You're just a player
That's not my format
Hey... oh oh oh oh ooh
Cya... ooh
(Prisoner of your love)
Oooooh... hmm, yeah
