(Ray Sawyer/Gary Doon)

It's cold in this jail cell that I live in
|
The silence makes me think about me and you
|
I guess I tried too hard to make things better
|
Now the paying is the hardest thing I do
|
|
It hurt to see you cry cause I love you
|
I never got that job the way we planned
|
Now the baby's crying haunts me like a sad dream
|
Ain't it funny how our lives get out of hand
|
|
Now I can't go home anymore
|
The memory of you and me is all I'm living for
|
I know now it was better living free and being poor
|
Than just sitting here with all my tears behind these walls and doors
|
|
Each week I wait everyday for Sunday
|
The one day that they let me close to you
|
I wonder as the sun comes up each Monday
|
Why I haven't seen you in a week or two
|
|
Now I can't go home anymore
|
The memory of you and me is all I'm living for
|
I know now it was better living free and being poor
|
Than just sitting here with all my tears behind these walls and doors
|
|
And I can't go home anymore
