Doug Fitch - Breakaway Lyrics

A golden wheel of light rises on the plain
Rolling through the fields, wind and rain
It's the sun of Kansas rising, riding into dawn
A flash of light, then he's gone

The world's a stage through every age
Spinning without end
A road of ups and downs
Twists and bends
Winning, yearning, crashing, burning
You've spoken to us all
The story ends, but words break the fall

Tilly, please, please don't ride away
There's too many roads not taken, can't you stay?
Please, please don't go today
You've beat us to the finish
I guess it was time to break away

The sun setting fast, slips from the sky
Its fire through the night never dies
The bell was ringing, we're left clinging
Wheels of time will roll
Like the sun, memories are gold

Tilly, please, please don't ride away
There's too many roads not taken, can't you stay?
Please, please don't go today
You've beat us to the finish
I guess it was time

Please, please don't ride away
There's too many roads not taken, can't you stay?
Please, please don't go today
Oh, you've beat us to the finish
I guess it was time to break away
