Daniel Lanois - The Unbreakable Chain lyrics

You wake up and there's something there tugging at your sleeve It's not the pitter-patter of the one in your dreams Held on by the chain, the unbreakable chain Held there by the chain, the unbreakable chain You walk and you know that the wind is not passing you by It's speaking and you listen and the tears don't come out when you cry cry cry cryin won't break the unbreakable chain cryin won't break the unbreakable chain It's thirty years ago and you live with your decision You talk to him in a prayer - you send out your transmission But a prayer won't break the unbreakable chain, Your prayers won't break the unbreakable chain Your baby's not yours but he walks the streets of your city He wants to know you, there's no self pity It's pulling at your heart, the unbreakable chain pulling at your heart, with the unbreakable chain And you, you put an ad in the paper - it's foolish but maybe maybe he'll see cause he's searching for mama mi oh mama here, mama feel the unbreakable chain mama feel the unbreakable chain You can't believe that it's now, it's turned itself around You're frightened of the way that you look, but you meet him there in town Oh, the joy and the fear of the unfailable pain The joy and the fear of the unfailable pain He stares at you and you step back and no words are spoken You say hello to your boy and he says 'Mama you've awoken' ah, yes you have broken the unbreakable chain - yes you have broken the unbreakable chain You have broken the unbreakable chain yeah, you have broken the unbreakable chain.
