Well, I found this, but no information about the source. Apparently recorded or written by somebody named Jerry Stensrud - the lyrics are from a Website that is apparently operated by Stensrud - (click).

COLD GREY WALLS

In the cold grey walls of a prison ---wracked with pain and fever she laid
A woman who calls for her loved one ---As over and over she prayed
Put your arms around me ---Hold me close before we part
Let the warm sweet tears from your blue eyes ---Ease the pain in my cold, cold heart

They searched through her few possessions ---For the name that she tried to call
But there wasn't a name nor a picture ---No letters, no nothing at all
Put your arms around me---Hold me close before we part
Let the warm sweet tears from your blue eyes---Ease the pain in my cold, cold heart

She died in the night in that prison ---With no one to answer her screams
But I hear my name and it haunts me ---As she screams in the night in my dreams
Put your arms around me ---Hold me close before we part
Let the warm sweet tears from your blue eyes---Ease the pain in my cold, cold heart
