Erasure › Lyrics › Chains of Love

How can I explain
When there are few words I can choose
How can I explain when words get broken

Do you remember there was a time?
When people on the street
Were walking hand in hand in hand

They used to talk about the weather
Making plans together
Days would last forever

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up and don't give up

Together with me and my baby
Break the chains of love

Do you remember once upon a time?
When there were open doors
An invitation to the world

We were falling in and out with lovers
Looking out for others
Our sisters and our brothers

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up and don't give up now

Together with me and my baby
Break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love

How can I explain
When there are few words I can choose
And how can I explain when words get broken

We used to talk about the weather
Making plans together
Days would last forever

Come to me, cover me, hold me
Together we'll break these chains of love
Don't give up and don't give up now

Together with me and my baby
Break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love

Don't give up, don't give up now
Together with me and my baby
Break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love

Don't give up, don't give up now
Together with me and my baby
Break the chains of love
Together we'll break these chains of love
