Well she should have left him standing behind that little wall I guess everyone has got a side they hide before the fall She could almost feel him losing the race he had begun But emotion lives inside the heart before the race is won The emotion he was hiding might have saved it all But he chose to keep it locked inside behind that little wall Well he told her as a young man they taught him not to grow Love or even anger must not be allowed to show She had always needed someone and he was just the same But not everyone is equal when they're dealing with the pain Saying nothin' is a way of life that starts before you know God knows if you can keep it in you must be made of stone She was on the outside He would not look back Oh she had to Breakaway Pride is not a playmate when you're left alone at night Breakaway Love is not a plaything you can save for rainy days She was told when she was younger get yourself a man Love him and take care of him and do the best you can But it never seems to work out no matter how she tries Cos he always seems so lost behind that little wall of lies He was on the outside She would not look back Oh she had to Breakaway Pride is not a playmate when you're left alone at night Breakaway Love is not a plaything you can save for rainy days Breakaway Must be something more than this distance That we feel the need to cross Breakaway But the way that we show each other never seems enough Share your heart and share your life Show me there's a way Share your heart and share your life I know that there's a way Must be something more than this difference More than distance
