Break away,
my heart is dying.
Break away, the time is flying.
So I'm gonna tell myself,
don't sit and mourn.
Looking sad and so forlorn.
Tell myself, I'm glad I'm born.
Well, I'm gonna break away.
Break away, the breeze is flying
Break away, the time is flying
So I'm gonna pack a bag
and get my coat
Lock my door and leave a note
Take a train or take a boat
Well, I'm gonna break away
I'll take me round from town to town
I'll see the friends I knew
I left them by the wayside,
but I know their hearts are true.
I'll give myself a holiday.
I need it all so bad.
And if I find a new love,
I'll be glad, glad, glad.
Break away, my heart, yeah.
Break away, the time is flying.
Oh, I'm gonna find out
what this world can give
While I'm young, I'm gonna live
That's my plan, I'm positive
Well, I'm gonna break a wing
I'll take me round from town to town
I'll see the friends I knew
I left them by the wayside
But I know their hearts are true
I'll give myself a holiday
I need it oh so bad
And if I find a new love,
I'll be glad, glad, glad.
Break away, my heart is crying.
Break away, the time is flying.
Oh, I'm going to find out
what this world can give.
While I'm young, I'm going to live.
That's my plan, I'm positive.
Well, I'm going to break
away.
Gonna break a whip,
gonna break a whip,
break a whip, break a whip.
