I see the sun fall down, watch the shadows grow 
And as the night draws in 
I feel the walls get close 
I'm tucked in here with your memory, a prisoner doin' time 
The scene keeps repeating where you say goodbye 
And it feels like my heart's doin' hard time 
Don't know how much 
I can take 
Letting you go was a fool's crime 
I'm paying for it every day 
With my heart doin' hard time 
Staring into the night it's easy to see 
Those nights you spent all alone just waiting for me 
I took your love for granted, didn't even think twice 
I can't escape what 
I've done, now 
I'm paying the price 
And it feels like my heart's doin' hard time 
Don't know how much 
I can take 
Letting you go was a fool's crime 
I'm paying for it every day 
With my heart doin' hard time 
I wish I could change the past 
I wouldn't make the same mistake 
What I need is a second chance 
I learned my lesson 
Still it feels like my heart's doin' hard time 
Don't know how much 
I can take 
Letting you go was a fool's crime 
I'm paying for it every day 
Yes it feels like my heart's doin' hard time 
Letting you go was a fool's crime 
Yes it feels like my heart's doin' hard time 
Letting you go (I was such a fool) was a fool's crime
