if we two are far apart, dear
I could never ever love somebody new
Cause there isn't any room
While I'm chained to a memory of you,
I could never tell another I belong to them.
All the whispered words of love
I could never tell another
Cause I'm chained to a memory of you.
They wear the links away and then, dear,
and set me free to love anew.
But I'll never care for someone else again,
While I'm chained to a memory of you.
If the world should end tomorrow,
and there is nothing I can do
All my dreams and precious hopes
Yet I'm chained to a memory of you you
