Lyrics :
I've been taken I’ve been enslaved
I've been captured i've been saved
Been out wandering traveling lost
My hands are shackled my heart is crossed
Sacred wine straight from the grape
A prisoner in love can never escape
My task is done my burden is light
The dawn will come for the end of the night
Joy joy
I'm out of luck
Joy joy
I give up
Together we'll wake up together we'll sleep
We've tied the knot this bond we'll keep
Turn the lock from the outside in
This wheel of fate can roll and spin
Captive soldier betrayed by love
Sees no bars he sees the stars above
A link and a tie and a lover's embrace
A paradise made touched by grace
Joy joy
I'm out of luck
Joy joy
I give up
I've been taken I’ve been enslaved
I've been captured i've been saved
Been out wandering traveling lost
My hands are shackled my heart is crossed
Sacred wine straight from the grape
A prisoner in love can never escape
My task is done my burden is light
The dawn will come for the end of the night
Joy joy
I'm out of luck
Joy joy
I give up
Together we'll wake up together we'll sleep
We've tied the knot this bond we'll keep
Turn the lock from the outside in
This wheel of fate can roll and spin
Captive soldier betrayed by love
Sees no bars he sees the stars above
A link and a tie and a lover's embrace
A paradise made touched by grace
Joy joy
I'm out of luck
Joy joy
I give up

about
Piers Faccini France
If my songs were maps I'd want them to stretch from the English moors to the Saharan dunes via the plains of the Mediterranean.
