Breaking the Chains - Alan Merrill

I was waiting for you

You were waiting for me too

And nothing was happening

As far as I can see

We were locked in a dance

Slowly circling each other and romance

Like a couple of fighters

As far as I can see

Take your chances and roll the dice

Who knows now you might get lucky

A victim of your own device

If you stay

Oh oh

I’m breaking the chains of love

I’m sorry but I can’t go on

I’m breaking the chains of love

You can’t hold me down

Those days are over and gone

We were playing a game

No two players can play it the same

No one comes out a winner

As far as I can see

Take your chances and roll the dice

Who knows now you might get lucky

A victim of your own device

If you stay

Oh oh

I’m breaking the chains of love

I’m sorry but I can’t go on

I’m breaking the chains of love

You can’t hold me down

Those days are over and gone

I’m breaking the chains, oh oh

I’m breaking the chains, oh oh

I’m breaking the chains, oh oh

I’m breaking the chains, oh oh
