Текст песни Doin' Time - Justin Hayward

They tell me that the sun comes up every morning
They tell me that there's people out on the street
But why is life so cruel? (He's doin' time)

They tell me, man, he tops the list in creation
He takes his place as uncrowned king of the world
But why is man so cruel? (He's doin' time, ain't it a crime?)

Oh, Prince of Peace, we need you now
Give us a sign to show us how

Locked in her room, the lover mourns her betrayer
(It's such a shame, he took the blame)
Seems even love possesses treachery too
But how can love be cruel?
(He's doin' time)
(He's doin' time, ain't it a crime?)
(It's such a shame, he took the blame)

Seems this old world has lost it's way
On such a torn and troubled day

Locked in her room, the lover mourns her betrayer
(He's doin' time, ain't it a crime?)
Seems even love possesses treachery too
(It's such a shame, he took the blame)
But how can love
But how can love
But how can love be cruel?
(He's doin' time, he's doin' time)
