No Longer A Prisoner — текст песни (Hank Snow)

While a prisoner of war in Korea
Surrounded by guards and barrbed wire
I dreamed of returnin` to you, dear
Oh, that was my heart`s one desire

Now at last I am free and returnin`
And I`m thankful to God up above
I`m no longer a prisoner of war, dear
But I`m still a prisoner of love

(spoken)
These past years, my darlin` were like a nightmare to me
But through all the hardships and the suffering it seemed
Like your face I could always see
Seems like you gave me the courage and the will to live
When I was so heartsick and blue
And my lonely hours seemed to fly quickly by, dear
When I was thinking of you
Ya know, honey, I didn`t recieve all of your letters
Till way after the truce was signed
But now that I`ve read them all over
I hope, dear, that you haven`t changed your mind
Gee, now soon this plane is gonna be landin` and
I hope you`ll be waitin` there for me
The minutes are draggin` by like hours now
What`s my fate to be

In the crowd, dear, I see you there wavin`
And I`m thankful to God up above
For this ole` plane has just hit the runway
And I`m safe in the arms of my love
