"Link Of Chain" lyrics

"Link Of Chain"

Can't you see?
I can't explain
I'm a little like a link of chain
A ring around another
Running in and out again
Fly me on a kite line
Smilin' like a gold mine
I don't need to be right
Go to the end
And that'll do to hold me tonight

Morning rain
Make it soon
We get a little in the afternoon
To hold me like a mother
Hang me on the evening moon
Send me on a low one
Show me how to go one more
And never finally decide
Go to the end
Take it along for the ride

I ain't got long
I leave for a day
I never had a lot to say
Tell me like a brother
Do we throw it all away?
Sittin' on the sideline
Foolin' with a fine line
Never need to know the desire
Go to the end
Play it right down to the wire

Can't you see?
I can't explain
I'm a little like a link of chain
A ring around another
Running in and out again
Running in and out again
Running in and out again
