Seals & Crofts - Love Takes No Prisoners Lyrics

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.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Chorus]

It only knows that I need you.
Oh, love takes no prisoners.
Sometimes it makes me just want to run away.
