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.
