Prisoner by Mariah Carey

- M. Carey - B. Margulies -

You don't think that I'll be strong enough
Nooo baby now
I won't be a prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)

Maybe you don't think I love you strong enough
But I'm not gonna be a prisoner of your love
I know you're lyin', denyin'
All of your actions, so listen up
Cause here's my reaction

Here comes the night
No more living in the shadow of your love
This is my life
Always tried so hard to keep me down
But now I'll rise above
Those empty lies
Stop pretending that my accusations
Take you by surprise
I've realized
Now I'm ending all the secrecy
I see through your disguise
All the dreams we planned
I believed so I held on
I understand
So when the morning comes
You know that I'll be gone

You don't think that I'll be strong enough
Nooo baby now
I won't be a prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)

No longer blind
I can focus on deception
Used to keep me by your side
I read your mind
Don't believe it's all a mystery
There's nothing you can hide
It's all defined
There's nothing you can tell me now
To change the way I feel inside

All the dreams we planned
I believed so I held on
I understand, yeah
So when the morning comes
You know that I'll be gone

(You don't think) that I'll be strong enough
Noo baby now
(I won't be) the prisoner of your love
(Prisoner of your love)
I'm just not the girl you thought I was
Not gonna be a prisoner
I won't be the prisoner of your love
Of your
Looove

Don't wanna be a prisoner
I don't wanna be a prisoner
No
Mmmh
Don't wanna be a prisoner
I don't wanna be a prisoner

So if you wanna be my love
You can't be all wild
Play up when
You see me and then say 'Mariah I miss you'
Expect me to hug and kiss you?
Don't that dis you?
But I guess I'm not the kind of girl you thought I was
I've had enough of 'Now I'll see ya later 'cause...'
Boy make me know that I'll be strong enough
But I won't be a prisoner baby of your love
No more no more no more no more no more no more

No nooo, baby now
I won't think
(No no no)
Prisoner of your loooove
(Prisoner of your love)
(I'm just not) the girl you thought I was
Oh
Not gonna be a prisoner
(Not gonna be)
(I won't be) the prisoner of your
Love
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah

I'm not one of those girls who'll wait around
Cryin' 'cause you wouldn't take me all over town
You can't do that
I'm not a door mat
You're just a player

That's not my format
