[Verse 1]
Each time I hold somebody new
My arms grow cold thinking of you
No one can take your place
Darling, in my embrace
I'll never be free
[Verse 2]
And when my lips burn with desire
No other kiss puts out the fire
Though I may try and try
No one can satisfy this longing in me
[Bridge]
I'll never be free from your smile so tender
The sweet surrender in your eyes
Tell me, how can I be free when you know I'm gonna still remember
How you thrill me, thrill me with a smile
[Verse 3]
Just like a chain bound to my heart
Your love remains, baby, when we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you
Made me a slave to you
I'll never be free
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
I'll never be free from your smile so tender
Or the sweet surrender in your eyes
Tell me, how can I be free when I still remember
How you thrill me, thrill me with a smile
[Outro]
Just like a chain bound to my heart
Your love remains, baby, whenever we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you
Made me a slave to you, yes, it did
I'll never, never, never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, never, ever, ever be free
Baby, I'll never, ever, ever, ever be free
