Toto was formed in Los Angeles in 1977 by David Paich, Steve Lukather, the son of hollywood Assistant Director Bill Lukather, Bobby Kimball, brothers Steve and Jeff Porcaro, and David Hungate, the son of former United States Congressman and United States District Court Judge William L. Hungate. The bandmembers had met in high school and at studio sessions in the 1970s, when they became some of the busiest session musicians in the music business. Composed entirely of seasoned studio musicians, Toto seemed to come out of nowhere. They did not get known first on the club circuit as nearly all bands do prior to being signed by a label.

Don’t Chain My Heart Lyrics

Toto

Tired and frozen, Im under your spell
I thought I knew you, but now I know you well
I wake up beside you, move across your killing floor
I need my freedom and I see an open door
The room is getting smaller and the walls are closin in
No ones leavin and nobodys gettin in
I try to run, I try to hide, I try to tell you what Im feelin inside
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but theres nothing left to hold
Dont chain my heart (dont chain my heart)
Dont chain my soul (dont chain my soul)
Dont chain my heart (dont chain my heart), cause you got to let it go
Looks like trouble, the signs are everywhere
I bend a little but you take more than your share
Crimes of passion, crimes of mortal men
Its a deadly attraction and I wont be fooled again, baby
The storm is coming, the winds begin to rise
Please release me from this house of compromise
All day, all night, your love is like an outlaw waiting till the time is right
Nobodys wrong, no ones to blame
Maybe its just too hot because were standin in the flame
Chorus
Im a victim of your pain and jealousy
I feel like a prisoner and you hold the lock and key
We lost our vision, we lost our paradise
But theres still a part of me I refuse to sacrifice
(instrumental break)
I try to run, I try to hide, I need to tell you what Im feelin inside, baby
Should I stay, should I go
You know I wanna touch you, but theres nothing left to hold
Chorus repeats 2x
