Well she called me from Memphis
To let me know she was gone
Time keeps drifting by
But her memory lives on
I still reach out for her
In the dead of night
Lord I can’t shake these pains
I just can’t get right
She locked my heart and took the key
Broke my soul, left a hex on me
I pray the day I’ll break these chains
I just got to learn to love again
Learn to love again <2>
I met her down in New Orleans
On a hot summer’s night
Love came so easy
Love never felt so right
Sweet days of happiness
Long nights of her charms
I thought I’d love forever
Forever in her arms
She locked my heart and took the key
Broke my soul, left a hex on me
I pray the day I’ll break these chains
I just got to learn to love again
Learn to love again <2>
A call came late one night
I let the telephone ring
I heard a lonely voice
On my phone machine
She locked my heart and took the key
Broke my soul, left a hex on me
I pray the day I’ll break these chains
I just got to learn to love again
She locked my heart and took the key
Broke my soul, left a hex on me
I pray the day I’ll break these chains
I just got to learn to love again
Learn to love again <4>
