THE TIES THAT BIND

Studio take 2

Just another lonely ???
???
??? alone you ride
You don't want nothin', don't need no one by your side
You're walkin' tough baby, but you're walkin' blind

To the ties that bind
The ties that bind
No man can break the ties that bind

Outside, inside, anyway your heart goes
There's one thing little girl that I wanna know
Everybody gonna know who stopped the rain
Who will end the sadness, who will end the pain
Just why, why you walk the line
And face the ties that bind

The ties that bind
Now you can't break the ties that bind
Whao whoa the ties that bind

Whoa I would rather ???, yes I would baby
Oh ???
Oh ???
Oh I know it baby

Oh the ties that bind
The ties that bind
No man can break the ties that bind
You can't forsake the ties that bind
No man can shake the ties that bind
