Love's Own Chains Songtext
von The Flatlanders

My mind can′t rest
I wait the day
I turn and toss
The night away
I hear my heart
Crawl through my veins
There's no relief
From love′s own chains

Just like the winds
That rule the skies
No one can bend
The bind that ties
The more they try
The more in vain
Love must be free
From love's own chains


Oh, what a fool
I've always been
Free on the outside
And chained within
How can it be?
Can you explain
How to be free
From love′s own chains?

Just like the winds
That rule the skies
No one can bend
The bind that ties
The more they try
The more in vain
Love must be free
From love′s own chains

The rooster crows
The wild birds sing
I wonder what
The day will bring
The faucet leaks
The sink is stained
There's no relief
From love′s own chains


From love's own chains
Love′s own chains
Love must be free
From love's own chains
From love′s own chains
Love's own chains
Love must be free
From love's own chains
