The Prisoner

歌詞

Take us to the prisoner Let us gaze into his eyes To see what kind of man It takes a nation to despise Take us to the prisoner Let us look upon his face To see why twenty thousand men Would gladly take his place Won't someone give a drink to him? Remove the chains and let him live Let him live Take us to the prisoner Let us listen to his voice To see why worlds of wisdom's In a cell without a choice Take us to the prisoner Torn and bent beneath the chains We wonder if the world is really Worthy of his name? Won't someone give a drink to him? Remove the chains and let him live Let him live We know where we're going For we heard the new winds blowing And we're got to know for ourselves It won't help to listen to someone else Take us to the prisoner With his eyes so full of grace The priests have lied And kings have died Filled with their own disgrace Won't someone give a drink to him? Remove the chains and let him live Let him live Let him live Let him live
