The stars were dancing when I pulled into town I picked my ego up and turned it around Voices of angels sang a hymn in my ear The tune was heavy and the meaning was clear The message moved me in a sweet symphony Lifted my spirit into sweet harmony When they sang, "Break away" It's a new day It's the morning of your life Break away - This is your day Make it count, make it right, break away, break away Some people can't believe in mystical things But I believed it when I heard the angels sing I watched the day break on the east side of town I dropped the shackles that were keeping me down I knew the message in the meaning was true It gave me hope and it will give it to you Oh, honey, break away It's a new day It's the morning of your life Break away - This is your day Make it count, make it right, break away, break away
