Oh now I'm kept here

In this prison if the mind

How long I cannot tell
The truth I'd like to find

Oh you take me down

To the black and the blue

I'm sure I don't know why

But I'll do it all for you

I see the loch into the gap

In the grey stone wall

The white caps will be gathering

In the meeting hall

Oh you take me down

To the black and the blue

I'm sure I don't know why

But I'll do it all for you

And they are determined

To keep me locked away

My end isn't certain

It could be many days

Until they find me

It could be many days

I see the sun coming up

I hope to see it go down

They drag me out to see a sight

That turns my head around

Oh you take me down

To the black and the blue

I'm sure I don't know why

But I'll do it all for you

And they are determined

To keep me locked away

My end isn't certain

It could be many days

Until they find me

It could be many days
