Rare and Precious Chain

(... 0:25)
Rare and precious chain,
Do I have to tell you, tell you once again?
Under red lights, on soft nights, it [bad word] back to you.
Rare and precious chain,
Binds me to your soul round gently pulsing veins.
Shackled tight, feel love's [bad word] back to you.

No gold of fools.
No hostage taking.
No [bad word] 
To leave you forsaken.

Tiny beads of sweat,
thin diamond glistening, glistening around your neck,
forgotten rooms, black [bad word] they [bad word] back to you.

No crock of glittering prizes.
No sharply worded telegram.
No excuses for the word-weary.
No excuses for who I am.

It's a rare and precious chain.
Around your neck I place it, place it once again.
Drawn finger tight, feel love's [bad word] back to you.
Under red lights, on soft nights, it [bad word] back to you.
Rare and precious chain.
