(don't Break These) Chains Of Love

Supremes · Love Child [1968]

(Johnny Bristol/Harvey Fuqua/George Beauchamp)



Please don't ever break these chains of love



You've wrapped around me



'Cause I've been so happy darling



Ever since the day you've bound me



So tighter, pull 'em tighter



Till I feel love's sweet pain



'Cause these chains of love



Keep me from going insane



Love, oh love sweet love



Comes but once in a lifetime



The only love I need is yours



And oh, darling, I hope you need mine



So tighter, pull 'em tighter



Till I feel love's sweet pain



'Cause these chains of love



Keep me from going insane



I felt so sure I could resist you



My mistake was the first time I kissed you



Now I'm caught in a web of my own making



My heart's full of love and it's yours for the taking



Ooh, take it, baby don't break it



Just like a thief in the night



You stole my heart away



But now that you stolen it darling



I've only got one thing to say



Tighter, pull 'em tighter



Till I feel love's sweet pain



'Cause these chains of love



Keep me from going insane



These chains of love



Tighter, tighter, tighter these chains



Chains of love



Baby, baby, baby these chains



Chains of love



Lock 'em up, lock 'em up, lock 'em up



Chains
