Chains Around My Heart

William DuVall

Compositor: William DuVall

Reach for me across this frozen distance
We’ve come too far to turn around
I don’t know why it comes so easy
For me to break your heart and let you down

Well, maybe I could cry you a river
But I’d probably just be wasting my tears
And tears won’t wash away
These chains around my heart

Chains around my heart

The harder we push away each other
The more wrapped up we seem to be
Forgive me, darling, if I'm jealous of your power
The spell you’re casting over me

And even if you tell me it’s over
We both know those are just hollow words
And hollow words can never break
These chains around my heart
