Prison Time Lyrics - American Sunshine - Colin Hay

Nothing left and nothing came 

Woke up this morning calling out your name 

The more things change the more they stay the same 

Like dodging rocks in the pouring rain 

I wanna know, are you doing well? 

'cause baby from this distance it's hard to tell 

I wanna know, did you let it go? 

'cause I can't stop my mind from doin' prison time 

Someone left someone blamed 

Stuck in the middle of a hurricane 

The more I lost seemed like the more I gained 

But still I have to ask you to explain 

I wanna know, did you take a chance? 

Or did you stay a victim of circumstance 

I wanna know, did you find the door? 

'cause I can't stop my mind from doin' prison time 

Nothing's black and nothing's white 

I hear echoes of your footsteps in the dead of night 

No one is wrong and no one's right 

I'm in the ring but I don't want to fight 

I wanna know, are you doing well? 

'cause baby from this distance it's hard to tell 

I wanna know, did you let it go? 

'cause I can't stop my mind from doin' prison time 

I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know 

I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know
