Chained |
Seems like yesterday |
You were in my arms |
And in a special way |
You touched my heart with all your charms. |
Now you’re gone |
And I find myself |
Baby, I’m all alone |
And there’s no love left. |
Hey! |
hey! |
Don’t know why I failed. |
For you I’ve always cared |
And I did all I know |
To win your love and make it so You’d always stay |
But you turned away. |
Honey, what could I say? |
How could you |
How could you do me this way? |
Cuz I’m chained |
To your love and affection. |
Chained cuz your love |
Is my only direction |
Huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh. |
I’ve got to make it right |
Somehow it all went wrong |
Somewhere down the line |
The love I lost |
The love I gotta find |
Whoah! |
and it won’t be long |
I’ve gotta make it right baby |
And carry you tenderly back home. |
I’m chained |
To your love and affection. |
Baby, chained to your love. |
When I hear your name |
How I tremble, how I tremeble, yeah. |
Honey, you know, honey, you know, yeah. |
Now I admit that I Haven’t been the perfect guy |
For a girl as sweet as you |
But my heart and soul cries out to you. |
One more chance that’s all I need |
I’m gonna make it right, baby, |
Now you just stay won’t you stay with me? |
Cuz I’m chained |
To your love and afection. |
Baby, I’m chained cuz your love |
Is my only direction. |
I’m chained… |
