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
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
That's the price i have to pay
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
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
