verse 1
Let me see the sunshine, let me feel the rain
Let me go where I wanna go
I wanna smell the flowers, see the dawn again
Find those friends I used to know
Find those friends I used to know
verse 2
Well I spent twenty long years in a dirty old prison cell
I never saw the light of day
If you could understand, oh that kind of living hell
That's the price I have to pay, oh yeah
That's the price I have to pay
Instrumental
verse 3
They say I killed a man but I never told them why
So you can guess what I've been through
So for twenty long years I've been thinking of that other guy
And what I saw him do to you
What I saw him do to you, listen here
verse 4
So if tomorrow comes and I walk outside that door
Try to understand the strain
But if you smile that smile I know I couldn't ask for more
I know I'd do it all again, yes, I would
I know I'd do it all again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeaaaaaaah do it all again
