Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Each time I hold somebody new
My arms grow cold aching for 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
Oh, I may try and try
(No one can satisfy)
This longing in me
[Verse 3]
(I'll never be free from your smile so tender)
(The sweet surrender in your eyes)
How can I be free, when I still remember
How you could thrill me with a sigh
[Verse 4]
Just like a chain bound to my heart
Your love remains when we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you (Made me a slave to you)
I'll never be free
[Verse 5]
Just like a chain bound to my heart
Your love remains when we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you (Made me a slave to you)
I'll never, no, I'll never be free
