Prisioner of Desire lyrics

I'm a prisoner of desire And I keep my cell neat ‘Cause I'm done taking victims in this self centred life And I stayed the night Because I'm not one to retreat And I watched you go to sleep as peaceful as a dove Peaceful as a dove I'll be the wandering cowboy, looking for a home Babe, I'll be the butterfly in your glass dome ‘Cause every Mona Lisa needs a velvet rope I'm a prisoner of desire And I know the guilty don't rest their feet So I practice a shade of sin In between black and white My merciless memory Keeps no record of my wrongs Like the gilded history, of our old navy's painted hall It's not history at all I'll be the wandering cowboy, looking for a home Babe, I'll be the butterfly in your glass dome ‘Cause every Mona Lisa needs a velvet rope To keep the dirty hands away The precious cargo safe To keep the vultures from picking at their prey And the old thief from the door Out of my mind and off my shoulder Because he takes and takes ‘til there's no more I raised El Dorado and I'm still looking for the gold Babe, I'll be the butterfly in your glass dome ‘Cause every Mona Lisa needs a velvet rope
