Break Away
Baha Men · Move It Like This
Loving and holding you close
So take my hand and leave your worries and your cares behind,
let's fly away to paradise
'Cause you, you are a city girl and I am an island man
I'll help you understand oh
You know a holiday is coming we can break away
And if it's you and me together we can save the day
Love it when we, we can break away
(2x)
Our tomorrows and our yesterdays are passing by
and you know the time has finally come
For us to get away from everything that brings us down
See baby it's time to have some fun
Cause you, you are a city girl and I am an island man
I'll help you understand oh
You know a holiday is coming we can break away
And if it's you and me together we can save the day
Love it when we, we can break away
(2x)
See you and me baby we can can get away,
explore the islands and put our footprints, deep in the sand yeah
that's how we do, you are my sweetheart so let me call you boo,
that's true,
I can see us cruising to the Bahamas,
why don't you flow with me, and you will truly see,
hanging with family,
is what everything's all about,
it's as good as it gets that's without a doubt (ha ha)
We've waited for so long I just can't believe
we're standing here, my love
You know a holiday is coming we can break away
And if it's you and me together we can save the day
Love it when we, we can break away

Break Away - Baha Men
Released in 2000, "Break Away" by the Baha Men stands as a defining track of the Eurodance genre, characterized by its infectious hook and driving beat. The song served as the lead single from their debut album, "Move It Like This," which became a commercial landmark in the early 2000s. Featuring the distinctive four-part vocal harmony that defined the group's sound, the recording exemplified the polished production style of the era. While the group is perhaps best known globally for "Hakuna Matata," "Break Away" demonstrated their versatility and ability to craft anthemic pop tracks that resonated across Europe and beyond. Its enduring popularity highlights the group's significant influence on the shape of modern dance-pop music.
