The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We shadow dance, you follow me, and that's the way it has to be

'Cause even though we've got no strings, you are tied to me

You never tried to turn away, unspoken touch to make you stay

And though it isn't written in stone, you belong to me

And when we get this close in the night, the circle closes in uptight

And it's like we're in

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together

Chains chains there's nowhere to escape

I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Just like the wind you're free to go, without your body or your soul

Oh you gave it to me long ago, you belong to me

And when we get this close in the night

Whoa whoa whoa, the circle closes in uptight, and it's like we're in

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together

Chains chains there's nowhere to escape

I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together

Chains chains there's nowhere to escape

I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Chains chains the kind that won't break, invisible chains holding us together

Chains chains there's nowhere to escape

I'm making you mine, I'm keeping you forever

Chains chains the kind that won't break
