[Intro]
Oh, I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
Gonna take me a hammer, knock down the walls
Every stone I chip away, I think of you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
[Verse 1]
Oh, come on and get here, woman
I don't know where you've been the past few days
My mindful eyes are weak and weary
I shed no tears when I see things clearly
Oh, what good is it anyway?
It's after dark, there's steam from the drains
Solitude is a lonely journey
Got work to do, but I ain't worried
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
Gonna take me a hammer, knock down the walls
With every stone I chip away, I think of you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
I'm headed for a breakthrough
I'm headed for a breakthrough
It's gonna get me over you
[Verse 2]
When your trust is gone
Like being lost, left for dead
The blues can pull you down and leave you empty
Sleeping alone in an empty bed
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
Gonna take me a hammer, knock down the walls
With every stone I chip away, I think of you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
I'm headed for a breakthrough
I'm headed for a breakthrough
It's gonna get me over you
[Bridge]
You hurt me so bad, it's criminal
Left me on the streets to die
Your version of love is so wonderful
You didn't have to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
Gonna take me a hammer, knock down the walls
With every stone I chip away, I think of you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
Gonna take me a hammer, knock down the walls
With every stone I chip away, I think of you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
(Headed for a breakthrough)
I'm headed for a breakthrough
Gonna get me over you
I'm headed for a breakthrough
(Headed for a breakthrough)
I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
[Outro]
(Headed for a breakthrough)
I'm headed for a breakthrough
Yeah (Headed for a breakthrough)
I'm headed for a breakthrough, I see it all
