Unchained Desire
Thunder rumbles, lightnin' flashes closer
Wind picks up bringin' cooler air
Porch swing sways back and forth
Unchained Melody plays on the radio
Unchained desire rattles the heart
Wistful feelin' closes in
No one to sway with
No one to play with
Lyin' to myself sayin'
It could never have been otherwise
This is the way it had to be
This is not a dream
Wavin' me farewell
Crushin' out my life
Stretchin' out in despair
It is not a dream
The reality makes me tremble
As a shadow of what was
Passes over my thoughts
Passes me by
