Chained To A Memory - Dusty Springfield

Written by：Richard Ahlert/Kay Rogers

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

Why am I chained to the hurt I knew

Each day the thought of something 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 yeah

When 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

When 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 oh yeah

Yes I am doomed to be chained to a memory
