Lyrics for Breakthru as interpreted by jhines0042

Breakthru Lyrics
When love breaks up
When the dawn light wakes up
A new life is born - oooooh
Somehow I have to make this final breakthru . . . now!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I wake up
Feel just fine
Your face
Fills my mind
I get religion quick
'Cos you're looking divine
Honey you're touching something, you're touchin' me
I'm under your thumb, under your spell, can't you see ?
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru - oh yeah

Breakthru, these barriers of pain
Breakthru, yeah, to the sunshine from the rain
Make my feelings known towards you
Turn my heart inside and out for you now
Somehow I have to make this final breakthru
Now! (now now now)
Oh yeah

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Your smile
Speaks books to me
I break up
With each and every one of your looks at me
Honey you're starting something deep inside of me
Honey you're sparking something, this fire in me
I'm outta control, I wanna rush headlong into this ecstasy

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you - ooh ooh ooh ooh
That would really be a breakthru
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru
Oh yeah
Breakthru, breakthru

Break, hey
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you - ooh ooh ooh ooh
That would really be a breakthru
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Breakthru

This song is shown through the eyes of a depress person that cant let his dead love go. However, he comes across another bueatiful girl that he wants to know. But the depression and sad thoughts of the other the girl holds him back and he waits reluctantly for that girl to come back someday. If he can breakthru his own dead love for a new one. SONG ROCKS!

Roger Taylor wrote it for his "then" girlfriend Debbie Lang.

The intro is a Freddie Mercury written "A New Life Is Born" which exists as a separate demo in a bit longer form on the bootleg market.

Another great Queen song about finding the strength to open up and love again. Freddie and Queen rock.

A fast paced feel good rocker accompanied by a video that does the song justice. Great lyrics which all of us can relate to in some way. All aboard the Miracle Express!

I think it's about being in love with an acquaintance. Although it my hurt because you're not with them (you don't know if they like you back), it's a good thing just to be able to talk to them, make them smile. '...honey you're touching me...': just them touching your arm or whatever is like a surprising, wonderful thing. Each positive response is a little breakthrough. But the 'final breakthru' would be asking them out/telling them how you feel!
Or, theres the possibilty that both people are friends and unaware of thier feelings towards each other and don't understand why they enjoy being together so much and the breakthru would be the realisation!
Oh and the begginning bit suggests the narrator breaking up with someone and not really caring about it, because presumably they care so much more for the person mentioned throughout the rest of the song.

The 12´version is better in my opinion than the basic version.

I think it's about being obsessed/in love with a person you can't have. Either someone who is already with someone, or someone that you perceive to be too above you to even consider.

It could also be about loving again after breaking up, which is suggested by the very first part.

It could be a troubled relationship where a person is reaching out to his partner to be more emotionally involved.

A year and a half after my brother passed away (1999), I got depressed. One night I had a vivid dream about my brother and he sang this song to me. At the time I didn't know the words, but I recognized the song. Next day I bought the cd and read the text: these are my brothers words telling me he wanted to reach me one more time, through my rain into the sunshine and make me smile again....
At that time I knew I had to face myself, and get better...... it worked....
Whenever I hear the song, I hear my brother talking to me. That's what it means to me.

i think its about someone who's in love but no matter how they try the person they love will never really see them.

One of the best songs from Queen, and one of the most optimistic songs ever.
