ON THE INSIDE
Theme song from the TV series "Prisoner: Cell Block H" (1979)
(Allan Caswell)


Lynne Hamilton - 1979


He used to give me roses
I wish he could again
But that was on the outside
And things were different then

We'd build our world together
With a love so clear and strong
But that was on the outside
Where did I go wrong

On the inside the sun still shines
And the rain falls down
But the sun and rain are prisoners too
When morning comes around

Last night I dreamed we were together
Sharin' all the love we've known
Till I had to face the nightmare
Of waking up alone

On the inside the sun still shines
And the rain falls down
But the sun and rain are prisoners too
When morning comes around

On the inside the roses grow
They don't mind the stoney ground
But the roses here are prisoners too
When morning comes around

He used to give me roses
I wish he could again
But that was on the outside
And things were different then
