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   I could never tell another I belong to them   All those whispered words of love would not be true   I could never tell another that I long for them   Cause I'm chained to a memory of you   [ steel ]   Maybe time will wear the links away and then dear   They will break and set me free to love a new   But I'll never love someone else again dear while I'm chained to a memory of you   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
