Break Away Lyrics

John Mayer Break Away

If melody is my destiny 
Then what's left of me 
I'll give to you 

If next to me 
Is all that you need to be 
Would you settle for fantasy 
If it's the best you could do 

Can I have my cake? 
Can I have you too? 
Would you follow me? 
Could I ask you to? 

Would the world between us 
break these ties 
We've work so hard to realize 
Can a postcard say 
What I see in your eyes? 
Could I ever break away? 

Would I be satisfied 
and find peace inside 
Rolling half my life 
over broken white lines 

Can I have my cake? 
Can I have you too? 
Would you follow me? 
Could I ask you to? 

Will I wake up one morning 
and see your face 
and streaks on the window 
that the rainstorm makes 
Could you bear all the weight 
and the strength that it takes 
could I ever break away 

Can I have my cake? 
Can I have you too? 
Would you follow me? 
Could I ask you to? 

Would the world between us 
break these ties 
We've work so hard to realize 
Can a postcard say 
What I see in your eyes? 
Could I ever break away?
