Breaking the Chains

I was waiting for you
You were waiting for me too
And nothing was happening
As far as I can see
We were locked in a dance
Slowly circling each other and romance
Like a couple of fighters
As far as I can see
Take your chances and roll the dice
Who knows now you might get lucky
A victim of your own device
If you stay
Oh oh
I’m breaking the chains of love
I’m sorry but I can’t go on
I’m breaking the chains of love
You can’t hold me down
Those days are over and gone
We were playing a game
No two players can play it the same
No one comes out a winner
As far as I can see
Take your chances and roll the dice
Who knows now you might get lucky
A victim of your own device
If you stay
Oh oh
I’m breaking the chains of love
I’m sorry but I can’t go on
I’m breaking the chains of love
You can’t hold me down
Those days are over and gone
I’m breaking the chains, oh oh
I’m breaking the chains, oh oh
I’m breaking the chains, oh oh
I’m breaking the chains, oh oh
