Prisoner writes,
Without light,
Half a mile underground.
He's won the hearts
Of the murderous thieves
He can't see that surround.
And the rain cries for him.
And the chains bind to him.
Like they'll never see him again.
Like they'll never know him again.
Like they'll never hold him again.
Hold him again...
"Love him -
"Love him again", they say.
Take me home!
Take me home!
Take me home
When you're down here...
Take me home!
Take me home!
Take me home
'Cause I'm down here...
Somebody says:
"I could sure use some water -
It's been so long."
Prisoner replies:
"To quench our thirst,
How about a song?"
And the rain cries for him.
And the chains bind to him.
Like they'll never see him again.
Like they'll never know him again.
Like they'll never hold him again.
Hold him again...
"Love him -
"Love him again," they say.
Take me home!
Take me home!
Take me home
When you're down here...
Take me home!
Take me home!
Take me home
When you're down here...
Take me home!
Take me home...
'Cause I'm down here...
