So many years ago, I believed every word you said
But you had a fearful love, handing it out like crumbs of bread
Suddenly you were gone, when I thought everything was fine
I couldn’t see inside you, so I just assumed the fault was mine.
Now every time I meet someone new
That same old scene replays, déjà vu.
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
The last time I’m ever gonna cry over you
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
This woman’s happy now, that girl’s days of sadness are through.
It hasn’t been easy, no, silencing voices from the past
Building a whole new world, based on what’s real and what will last
Now every lie you let me believe
I’ve proven wrong and so I’m released.
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
The last time I’m ever gonna cry over you
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
This woman’s happy now, that girl’s days of sadness are through.
Oh, now I finally see -
it was never about me.
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
The last time I’m ever gonna cry over you
This is the last link in the chain between me and freedom
This woman’s happy now, that girl’s days of sadness are through.
