Love Drags (Like a Ball and Chain)

CHORUS
Sometimes we forget what loving is,
You know it’s a crying shame.
When two hearts lie torn and shattered, then
Love drags like a ball and chain,
Love drags like a ball and chain.


Our love took off like a rocket that
Reached out to the highest stars
Now all I have is a locket and
These late night whiskey bars.

CHORUS

Our love would last forever, well
At least that’s what we thought.
Until the end of never, girl
But we both sold love short.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
If love is made in heaven, then
How come this living hell.
Our sins may be forgiven, when
Our broken hearts do heal.

Our love would last forever, well
At least that’s what we thought.
Until the end of never, girl
But we both sold love short.

CHORUS
