I'll Never Be Free - Etta Jones

Each time I hold somebody new

My arms go cold aching for you

No one can take your place

Darlin' in my embrace

I’ll never be free

And when my lips burn with desire

No other kiss can put out the fire

Thought I may try and try

No one can satisfy

This longing in me

I’ll never be free from your smile so tender

Sweet surrender in your eyes

How can I be free when I still remember

How you could thrill me with a sigh

Just like a chain bound to my heart

Your love remains when we’re apart

Each kiss I give to you

Made me a slave to you

I’ll never be free

When my lips burn with desire

No other kiss can put out the fire

Thought I may try and try

No one can satisfy

This longing in me

I’ll never be free from your smile so tender

Sweet surrender in your eyes

How can I be free when I still remember

How you could thrill me with a sigh

Just like a chain bound to my heart

Your love remains when we’re apart

Each kiss I give to you

Made me a slave to you

I’ll never be free
