Behind These Prison Walls Of Love

William Bolick, Hazel Hope Jarrard

1. Behind these prison walls of love dear
Forever more I know I'll be
Condemned because you love another
No one could ever set me free

Ch.1. In my heart sweet memories linger
         Of the days when you were mine
         Behind these prison walls of love dear
         Visions of the past entwine

2. Perhaps my love for you seems strange dear
But it's all I'll ever know
So I'll content myself in memories
If it pleases you to go

Ch.2. Just remember precious darling
         When we face that judge above
         All my vows will be unbroken
         Behind these prison walls of love
