Lyrics for Time to Live

Time to live 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
