Lyrics
You bring me to life, then you shut me out
You keep me silent, when I should shout out
You make me cry when you make me come
You are the cop and I'm on the run
It all begins, just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough, but I can't get enough
This secret about us keeps being a ghost
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
Then you let me out, and I catch the sun
You give me a taste of you and no one
But you always leave, again I'm alone
This secret burns, but I'm imprisoned
It all begins, just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough, but I can't get enough
This secret about us keeps being a ghost
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
Secret life of lovers who have others
Under the covers
And while you break my heart
I’m a criminal in these parts
It all begins, just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough, but I can't get enough
This secret about us keeps being a ghost
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
It all begins, just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs, lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough, but I can't get enough
This secret about us keeps being a ghost
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
