Gallagher & Lyle - Breakaway 1976

Gallagher & Lyle - Breakaway 1976

I watch the distant lights go down the runway
disappear into the evening sky.
Oh you know I'm with you on your journey
Never could say goodbye.

And you will waken in another country
greet the morning under foreign skies.
Leaving me to face another Monday
it's not easy to get by.

It's not the place you're going to.
It's just a phase you're going through.
Though I won't stop you I don't want
to breakaway.
Fly across your ocean, breakaway
Time has come for you breakaway
Fly across your ocean, breakaway
Time has come

And now you travel on your own opinion,
leave your fears and doubts to fade away
Dust your dreams and take them on your journey,
Spread your wings and fly away

(Instrumental)

It's not the sun you're tryin to find
Something else is on your mind
You need a little space and time
to breakaway

It's not the place you're going to.
It's just a phase you're going through.
Though I won't stop you I don't want
to breakaway.
Fly across your ocean, breakaway
Time has come for you breakaway
Fly across your ocean, breakaway
Time has come for you

I put this on Facebook today for my wife, after her day of horrible transport problems involving planes, trains and taxis. But listening to it now puts me in a different time and place, long, long ago... Haven't thought about the person it reminds me of for a long time and I wonder where she is now.
