I found myself sitting alone
Wondering where I went wrong
Only God knows better than me

I crawled with every intent
To visit the house of the good saint
Sixty notes and a smile he said
Forty cash I gave and I left
Oh what a sad sad life

So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye
So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye

I have never before
Witnessed the rise and the fall
Of someone so close as to me
So close it life and it’s real
Oh what a sorry state of affairs

So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye
So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye, ‘bye

When you have fallen from grace
Shed the skin from a so pretty face
Can’t bare to look at yourself
Or even anyone else
It’s time to move on

So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye
So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye

So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye
So long I’ve done my time
Coldharbour Lane goodbye
