Patty Loveless - Prisoner's Tears lyrics
rate meA prisoner cries in the dark of his cell<br />
He knows the price of livin' in hell<br />
Nobody sees, nobody hears<br />
But nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears<br />
<br />
I've never been locked behind walls of stone<br />
But I've been a prisoner deep down in my bones<br />
No judge and no jury but the sentence is clear<br />
And nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears<br />
<br />
Counting the days, wonderin' when<br />
This prisoner's heart will finally mend<br />
<br />
Counting the days, wonderin' when<br />
This prisoner's heart will finally mend<br />

They say I'm free now but they can't feel my pain<br />
They don't see my shackles but I'm livin' in chains<br />
Love made the walls, love keeps me here<br />
Well, nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears<br />
Nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears<br />
A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell
