Golden Earring :: Prisoner Of The Night : Prisoner Of The Night Lyrics

(G.Kooymans/B.Hay)

Shortcomings I can't explain
Of body and brain
I feel I'm caught inside a bubble
I suggest we're in trouble
Let's be optimistic, pessimistic makes me sick
C'mon optimistic, get up, get up, get up, make it big
I can't fight 'cause I'm a prisoner of the night
I can't fight 'cause I'm a prisoner of the night
Mean wheel, prisoner of the night
No deal, for a prisoner of the night
Runnin' real, prisoner of the night
Escape, when daylight strikes yeah
And you won't come down no more

Mean wheel, prisoner of the night
No deal, for a prisoner of the night
Runnin' real, prisoner of the night
