ONE STEP AT A TIME
da da da um da da
da da da ba um da da
da da da um da da
da da da ba um da da
Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you always
dreamed of
Close enough for you to
taste
But you just can't touch
HOOK
You wanna show the world
but no one knows yours
name yet
Wonderin' when, where
and how you're going to
make it
You know you can if you
get the chance
In your face and the door
keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more
and more frustrated
And you getting all kinda
impatient
Waiting, we live and we
learn
CHORUS
To take one step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly, or
falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
supposed to happen
And we find the reasons
why
One step at a time
da da da um da da
da da da ba um da da
da da da um da da
da da da ba um da da
You believe, and you
doubt
You're confused, and got it
all figured out
Everything that you always
wished for
Could be yours, should be
yours, would be yours
If they only knew
you've done.
HOOK: Not because of what I've
done,
CHORUS: But because of who you
are.
When you can't wait any
longer (you can't wait) Chorus:
But there's no end in time I am a flower quickly
(when you need to find the fading,
strength) Here today and gone
It's your faith that makes tomorrow,
you stronger (the only way A wave tossed in the
we get there) ocean,
The only way we get there A vapor in the wind.

BREAKAWAY
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would
fall down
I'd just stare out my
window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would
pray)
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak
out
Felt like no one could hear
me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so
wrong here
So I prayed I could break
away
[Chorus:]
I'll spread my wings and
I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I
touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and
into the sun
But I won't forget all the
ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Wanna feel the warm
breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far
away (I will)
And breakaway
[Chorus]
Buildings with a hundred
floors
Swinging around revolving
doors
Maybe I don't know where
they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on,
moving on
Fly away, breakaway
I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell
you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and
into the sun
But I won't forget the place
I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway,
breakaway, breakaway
