Hearts Without Chains Lyrics


You wake up I know it's time to go
With a spinning head I lie and watch you smoke
Change the hands on my watch and hold you close
This misery is weightless as a stone

Have you lost the same things I have lost?
Do you know that panic I know?
Would I see the terror in your face?
Do you know that fever I know?
I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill in our Hearts Without Chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

You left everything behind except yourself
All I see is question marks and nothing else
You must've landed in New York by now
Please don't bring this love down

And have you lost the same things I have lost?
And do you know that panic I know?
And would I see the terror in your face?
Do you know that fever I know?

I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill
In our hearts without chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear
Or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down
Don't bring this love down

I wish time was still
We'd stay right here
With time to kill
In our hearts without chains

And if time was still
We'd have no fear
Or scars to heal
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains
In our hearts without chains

Hearts Without Chains
  • Goulding penned this breathless ballad with songwriter Fraser T Smith, who also co-penned Adele's hit single "Set Fire to the Rain." Smith was also responsible for producing UK chart-toppers for Tinchy Stryder ("Never Leave You," "Number 1"), Pixie Lott ("Boys and Girls") and Taio Cruz ("Break Your Heart").
  • This piano-backed ballad finds Goulding crooning about the misery of a long distance relationship. Her lover (most likely American electronic musician Skrillex) is about to fly away to New York and the misery she feels is "weightless as a stone." "It's my favorite song of the batch," she told Rolling Stone. "It has a folky English quality to it. Plus, it's quite nice to listen to and not be in the state I was when I wrote it."
