Look what you've done for me

You're making more fun for me

Troubadour me, destined to be

Set in my ways, stuck in my daze

You were the butterfly

Winking at me

Making my fires fly

Brought me romance

Taught me to dance

Making me win, making me grin

Schooling me

[CHORUS]

Breaking away

Your love has opened eyes

That couldn't see

Breaking away

Your beacon in the night

Discovered me

Show me some parachutes

Away today, sail away

As long as I'm here

Bring me some climbing boots

Open the door

Give me some more

Fasten me in, loosen the pin

Pull for me

[Repeat CHORUS 5x to fade]
