I'll Never Be Free

Each time I hold somebody new
My arms grow cold acing of you
No one can take your place
Darling, in my embrace
I'll never be free

And when my lips burn with desire
No other kiss puts out the fire
Though I may try and try
No one can satisfy this longing in me

I'll never be free from your smile so tender
The sweet surrender in your eyes
I cannot be free when I still remember
How you still thrill me with desire

Just like a train track through my heart
Your love remains though we're apart
Each kiss I gave to you made me a slave to you
I'll never be free

I'll never be free from your smile so tender
The sweet surrender in your eyes
I cannot be free when I remember
How you used to thrill me with desire

Just like a train track through my heart
Your love remains though we're apart
And each kiss I gave to you made me a slave to you
I'll never be free
