Chained To A Memory — Dusty Springfield

Why am I chained to a memory? Why does the thought of you still torture me? When will I find someone to set me free? So I won't be chained to a memory, mmm

Why am I chained to the hurt I knew? Each day the thought of something so cruel to do Where in this world will I escape from you? So I won't be chained to a memory

Your letters threw them on the fire Your pictures out the window All that I could find that reminded me of you I threw them all away

I get up in the morning I'm pacing the floor Like I'm expecting you to walk in the door I keep forgetting I won't see you anymore Guess I'm doomed to be chained to a memory

Oh, yes I am I get up in the morning I'm pacing the floor Like I'm expecting you to walk in the door I keep forgetting I won't see you anymore Guess I'm doomed to be chained to a memory Yes I am
