Lyrics

The Chain

[Verse 1]

Listen to the wind blow

Watch the sun rise

Runnin' in the shadows

Damn your love, damn your lies

[Chorus]

Oh, and if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you sayin'

You would never break the chain

And if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you sayin'

You would never break the chain

[Verse 2]

Listen to the wind blow

Down comes the night

Runnin' in the shadows

Damn your love, damn your lies

Break the silence

Damn the dark, damn the light

[Chorus]

And if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you sayin'

You would never break the chain

And if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you sayin'

You would never break the chain

And if you don't love me now

You will never love me again

I can still hear you sayin'...

[Outro]

And if you don't love me now (You don't love me now)

And if you don't love me now (You don't love me now)

And if you don't love me now (If you don't love me now)

And if you don't love me now (And if you don't love me now)

And if you don't love me now (And if you don't love me now)

And if you don't love me now (And if you don't love me now)

(You will never love me again, I can still hear you sayin')

And if you don't love me now (And if you don't love me now)
