I Love You Like A Ball And Chain

(album: Be Yourself Tonight - 1985)

Well the sound of your voice on the telephone
Make me feel distressed
Make me all alone
Why do I feel so incomplete?
When you're not here I'm just obsolete

My bed is burning all through the night
You're the only one that can make me feel right
Try to lay down my sleeping head
But I'm tossing and turning around instead

I love you like a ball and chain
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain
(Feels too good.)

I'm a fool I know but I'm stuck on you
I'm a fool I know and it's making me blue
There's a river of blood
There's a river of tears
I've been wasting all these years

I love you like a ball and chain
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain
(Feels too good.)

I love you like a ball and chain
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain
(Feels too good.)

I love you like a ball and chain
Love you like a ball and chain
I love you like a ball and chain
Love you like a ball and chain

I love you like a ball and chain
Love you like a ball and chain
I love you like a ball and chain
Love you like a ball and chain

I love you like a ball and chain
Ball and chain

[Repeat until the end:]
Like a ball and chain
Ball and chain
