Lyrics
Break away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What can I say?
You'll do it anyway.
You're always on the run,
Why don't you stay and talk this through?
There's nothing I can do,
But try to help you to understand that I love you.
Do you remember Shaker Heights?
We were just kids,
And I wish today was the same
But our lives just hold us down.
We've got these jobs that keep our feet
Planted firmly on the ground.
Just break away.
Where do we go?
I guess we'll never know,
I'm stuck in the Midwest
And you're out on the west coast.
There's nothing we can do,
But try to make it through.
You know I miss you.
Do you remember Shaker Heights?
We were just kids,
And I wish today was the same
But our lives just hold us down.
We've got these jobs that keep our feet
Planted firmly on the ground
Do you remember? <i>[repeat 4x]
And I wish today was the same
But our lives just hold us down.
We've got these jobs that keep our feet
Planted firmly on the ground.
Just break away.
