Blue Saxophones: Prisoner Of Love - Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins

Someone that I belong to Doesn’t belong to me Someone who can’t be faithful

Knows that I have to be Wonder if I am wrong to give her my loyalty

Why should I be a lone soul

Why can’t I be my own soul

Alone from night to night you’ll find me Too weak to break the chains that bind me I need no shackles to remind me

I’m just a prisner of love

For one comand I stand and wait now

From one who’s master of my Fate now

I can’t escape for it’s too late now

I’m just a prisoner of love

What’s the good of my caring if someone is sharing

Those arms with me Although she has another

I can’t have another

For I’m not free

She’s in my dreams awake or sleeping

Up on my knees to her I’m creeping

My very life is in her keeping

I’m just a prisoner of love.

Love.
