[Verse] You act like love is a ball and chain To carry round all night and day Something that keeps you from the run Honey that ain't my kinda love I know you worked so hard before Give everything we regain some more Believing hard you couldn't see Love herself she ain't to blame I want a love to call my own Someone to have someone to hold Somebody facing my same way Here beside me as I lay So it will be as it always is Love we have is the love we give In the warming summer rain I always think of your sweet face But as for now I'll walk away Cause you act like love is a ball and chain
