Breakaway Songtext
von The Alan Parsons Project

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I′d just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray

Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I′d pray

I could breakaway
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I′ll do what it takes, ′till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change and breakaway


Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I′ll take a risk take a chance
Make a change and breakaway Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jetplane
Far away

And breakaway
I'll spread my wings and I′ll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes, ′till I touch the sky
Make a wish, take a chance
Make a change and breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I gotta take a risk, take a chance Make a change and breakaway

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging with revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they′ll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

I′ll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it′s not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk, take a chance Make a change and breakaway


Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance
Make a change and breakaway
