Breakaway

Celine Dion

From the fire in your words 
To the dagger in your eye 
I just have to lay my body down 
Go and lay my body down 
I pretend to be asleep 
But I know you hear me cry 
I just have to lay my body down 
Go and lay my body down 

But if I 
Really want a change 
Then I must admit 
That I'm the one to blame 

If I could break away 
Cut the cord 
For worse or better 
If I could turn the page 
At last and say 
Goodbye forever 
But on the other side 
Of yesterday 
Beyond the heartache 
What if all I am 
Without the pain 
Is empty hearted 
I could break away 

Is it true what people say 
That it's darkest before dawn? 
I just have to lay my body down 
Go and lay my body down 
Any hope we might have saved 
Is too weak to let live on 
I just have to lay my body down 
Go and lay my body down 

And if I 
Really want a change 
Then tonight I'm gonna need 
All of my strength 

If I could break away 
Cut the cord 
For worse or better 
If I could turn the page 
At last and say 
Goodbye forever 
But on the other side 
Of yesterday 
Beyond the heartache 
What if all I am 
Without the pain 
Is empty hearted 
I could break away 

Oh, anything is better than this 
I know 
Anything is better 

If I could break away 
Cut the cord 
For worse or better 
If I could turn the page 
At last and say 
Goodbye forever 
But on the other side 
Of yesterday 
Beyond the heartache 
What if all I am 
Without the pain 
Is empty hearted 

If I could break away 
If I could turn the page 
But on the other side 
Of yesterday 
Beyond the heartache 
What if all I am 
Without the pain 
Is empty hearted 
I could break away
