about

“Bound,” a sexy, wistful song, was inspired by a friend who was leaving Toronto for an arranged marriage, and of the rewards and sacrifices that accompany the notion of being bound to family and responsibility.

He says
He's gone
He says, "I'm never coming home"
To know he's bound to be alone

I thought I could be true to
Nobody else but us
I'm gonna be blue
'Cause there's nobody else but us

She says (She says)
He's gone (She says)
She says, "He's never coming home" (Never coming home)
To know he's bound to be alone (Move on)

I'm gonna be true to (True)
Nobody else but us (Us)
I'm gonna be blue (Blue)
Cause there's nobody else but us

Oh...

I'm gonna be true (True)
To nobody else but us (Us)
I'm gonna be blue (I'm gonna be)
Cause there's nobody else but us (Nobody)

I'm gonna be blue (I'm gonna be true to)
Nobody, nobody (Nobody else but us)
I'm gonna be blue (I'm gonna be blue)
Cause there's nobody, nobody else but us (Nobody else but us)
