On the golden road
Someone carved our initials in the stone
I dreamed of curly black hair
When you were there
Our first rendezvous
Was in the devil's workshop
Come true
This was dirty, dark no-place
For a beautiful face
So why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
Why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
And even I was the winner
Even if it was just for a little while
You were good to me and smiled
While my so-called friends
Quickly turned into strangers
To the one that I love
So why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
You don't even know me
Anyway, I'm all torn up from yesterday
(Yesterday)
So why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
[solo]
So why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
You don't even know me
Anyway, I'm all screwed up from yesterday
(Yesterday)
So why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
Why do you
Want to throw another chain
Around my heart
Around my heart
[repeat and fade]
