Break These Chains ©Lightyear (E39 Peter Tanico NYC Remix)

Break These Chains, is a song that almost didn't happen. I almost deleted it, and a friend talked me out of it. This track has become a huge hit in several clubs around the country including, NYC, Miami, and Ft. Lauderdale and others. I think it is one of those moments artists get in where we can't see our own work is worthwhile. This is a song about a bad breakup and thinking that love is something to steer clear of. It is actually three pieces of from three songs I wrote, and the pieces all fit into one song. This sometimes happens in my songwriting process.

I'm traveling on the airwaves tonight
I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again
All I want to do is break these chains

Sometimes we have to see the light
Sometimes we have to see the light

Sometimes we have to
Open up our eyes and see
Sometimes we have to see
The light

And if you go
I know that I'll be broken hearted
I know that life will see you through
And I want to stay
Here within your arms
And I want to stay
Here with you
And I want to stay
Here with you

I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again
I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again

We kiss goodbye
And now I know my heart is breaking
I watch your photo fade to dust
We kiss goodbye
And I could hardly wait to see you
And now those days Just slipped away
And I want to stay
Here within your arms
And I want to stay
Here with you
And I want to stay
Here with you

I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again
I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again

I'm traveling on the airways tonight
I'm looking for your love to shine its light

I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again
I don't want to fall in love
I don't want to fall in love again
