If you'll remove these handcuffs of my hands
I won’t run away
I promise
If you'll take this blindfold of my eyes
I won’t run away
I really promise
I love to spend my days with you my captor
But if you ever leave me…
Run, Run, better run fast
You know I’ll hunt you down
You'll become my prey
Think, think for yourself
Who’s keeping who safe
So I tell you- don’t ever leave me,
Don’t ever leave me alone
If you wanna keep me in this cellar
Fifty years
I will understand, I promise
If it brings you comfort
Watching me in tears
I won’t let the guilt
Cause you sorrow
I like to spend my days with you my lover
But if you ever leave me…
Run, Run, better run fast
You know I’ll hunt you down
You'll become my prey
Think, think for yourself
Who’s keeping who safe
So I tell you- don’t ever leave me
Don’t ever leave me alone
