Jimmy Nail - I Refuse to Lie Down текст песни

Words and music by jimmy nall

One day at a time

Thats how I live my life today

One glimpse at the sun

And I was blinded by the light

What a price I was to pay

Each morning I rise

And I pray to God above

That one day I will return

To the world I left behind

To the people that I love

Its been ten years, maybe more

Since Ive been locked behind this door

And by rights I should be free

You can take a man, break his will

Make him bad, give him time to kill

But you cant do that to me

Im an innocent man

And I refuse to lie down

I refuse ta lie down

They put me in a place

Where the sun refused to shine

They took away my soul

But my memories remained

Of that once-upon-a-time

One day at a time

Thats how I live my life today

Still searching to find

A single word ihat fits the lock

To turn the key to set me free

And I refuse to lie down

I refuse to lie down
