[Verse 1]
Makes no difference if we two are far apart, dear
I could never ever love somebody new
'Cause there isn't any room inside my heart, dear
While I'm chained to a memory of you

[Verse 2]
I could never tell another I belong to them
All the whispered words of love would not be true
I could never tell another that I long for them
While I'm chained to a memory of you

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Maybe time will wear the links away and then, dear
They will break and set me free to love anew
I could never love somebody else again, dear
While I'm chained to a memory of you

[Verse 4]
If the world should end tomorrow I'd be satisfied
'Cause you're gone and there is nothing I can do
All my dreams and precious hopes of yesterday have died
Yet I'm chained to a memory of you
