Al Jarreau – Breakin' Away lyrics
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]
