Nona Gaye - Breaking Away lyrics

rate me

I'd really like to think that you were thinking of me

so close to you & yet you seem to be so far away

(so far away, so far)

until i just could not see you

by breaking away, you've broken the rules

by breaking my heart, you loved like a fool

by breaking away, you made me give in

by making me lose when i thought i could win

you're just a man, the kind of man with modern problems

can't rest his heart, he's got to go & be so far away

(so far away, so far) so far away, yeah

but this time i've something to say

by breaking away, broken the rules

breaking my heart, loved just like a fool

breaking away, oh, you went & made me give in

just by taking away all the love that you promised to give

(i saw the writing) clearly on the wall

it told me (watch your heart) it hurts when you call

(and yet, don't want to lose) i could not give in

i was lost in the fight, i just wanted to win

(breaking away) aww baby (broken the rules)

(breaking my heart, you loved just like a fool)

(breaking away) well baby i'm still loving you

(made me give in) with all the pain you put me through

can't you see?

by breaking away, you've broken the rules

by breaking my heart, you loved just like a fool

by breaking away, you made me give in

by making me lose when i thought i could win

i hear your name (over & over & over & over)

i don't know why 'cause you're to blame

ooh, wee baby, come back baby, save me baby

save this broken heart

breaking away

my baby

breaking away, you've broken the rules

breaking away

Breaking Away...
