Breakaway Lyrics

Well she should have left him standing behind that little wall
I guess everyone has got a side they hide before the fall
She could almost feel him losing the race he had begun
But emotion lives inside the heart before the race is won
The emotion he was hiding might have saved it all
But he chose to keep it locked inside behind that little wall

Well he told her as a young man they taught him not to grow
Love or even anger must not be allowed to show
She had always needed someone and he was just the same
But not everyone is equal when they're dealing with the pain
Saying nothin' is a way of life that starts before you know
God knows if you can keep it in you must be made of stone

She was on the outside
He would not look back
Oh she had to

Breakaway
Pride is not a playmate when you're left alone at night
Breakaway
Love is not a plaything you can save for rainy days She was told when she was younger get yourself a man
Love him and take care of him and do the best you can
But it never seems to work out no matter how she tries
Cos he always seems so lost behind that little wall of lies

He was on the outside
She would not look back
Oh she had to

Breakaway
Pride is not a playmate when you're left alone at night
Breakaway
Love is not a plaything you can save for rainy days
Breakaway
Must be something more than this distance
That we feel the need to cross
Breakaway
But the way that we show each other never seems enough

Share your heart and share your life
Show me there's a way
Share your heart and share your life
I know that there's a way

Must be something more than this difference
More than distance
