Adlibs:
Hey, baby
Ooh boy, yeah
Oh baby

I hope you realize baby
Just what you mean to me, uh
Hey you're where I run for cover
Your love is shelter for me

And when I find myself needing some lifting up
One night with you and that always is enough
Hey you make being in love
A true rare affair
So take me, I'm your prisoner

Chorus:
Will you sentence me to be your lover for life
Your lover for life
Will you sentence me
I want to be you lover for life
Your lover for life
Your lover, your lover
Yea, yea ooh

I just want to hear you say
You'll be my lover
My lover for life
Capture, there's no getaway
You're my lover, my lover for life boy

Under your spell or under my own power
It really doesn't matter to me, no boy
See I fell in love the first time I saw you
And have been falling in love ever since

Mmm boy, you heard my testimony
You've seen my evidence
Hey, it's a crime of passion, in every sense
And justice would be served
If you stay here in my world
So take me I'm your prisoner

Chorus

I just want to hear you say
You'll be my lover
Lover for life
Capture, there's no getaway
You'll be my lover, lover for life

You heard my testimony
You've seen my evidence
Hey, it's a crime of passion, in every sense
And justice would be served
If you stay here in my world
So take me I'm your prisoner

Chorus

I'm your prisoner
Take me, I'm your prisoner
And sentence me to be your lover for life
(I wanna be) I'm your prisoner
Take me, I'm your prisoner (take me baby)
And sentence me to be your lover for life
Your lover (your lover)
Your lover (your lover)
Your baby (your baby)
Your lover (your lover)
