Break these chains around my heart.
|
Cut me loose and set me free.
|
I can't stand to live my life,
|
Bound to your memory.
|
|
The 'phone rings, it's three in the morning,
|
Who else could it be?
|
You're gone, but you try to keep it going.
|
That's the last thing I need.
|
Forever is over,
|
Now it's up to me.
|
|
To break these chains,
|
If I'm ever gonna love again.
|
(Break these chains.)
|
I'm gonna say goodbye and let it end.
|
(These chains.)
|
My heart is tellin' me,
|
If I'm gonna be free:
|
I gotta break these chains.
|
|
It's time to put away your picture,
|
Take your pillow from my bed.
|
I'm still bound to you, baby,
|
But with every step,
|
I'm gettin' stronger,
|
And I won't bend.
|
|
I gotta break these chains,
|
If I'm ever gonna love again.
|
(Break these chains.)
|
I gotta say goodbye and let it end.
|
(These chains.)
|
My heart is tellin' me,
|
If I'm gonna be free:
|
I gotta break these chains.
|
|
Change, everybody changes;
|
Gonna have to be the one to break these chains.
|
Change, everybody changes;
|
Gonna have to walk away and break these chains.
|
|
Instrumental break.
|
|
Forever is over,
|
Now it's up to me.
|
|
To break these chains,
|
If I'm ever gonna love again.
|
(Break these chains.)
|
I'm gonna say goodbye and let it end.
|
(These chains.)
|
My heart is tellin' me,
|
If I'm gonna be free:
|
I gotta break these chains.
|
|
Change, everybody changes;
|
Gonna have to be the one to break these chains.
|
Change, everybody changes;
|
Gonna have to walk away and break these chains.
