Lyrics
Troy:
We're soarin', flyin'
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
Gabriella:
If we're trying
So we're breaking free
Troy:
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
Gabriella:
Creating space between us
'Till we're separate hearts
Troy and Gabriella:
But your faith, it gives me strength
Strength to believe
Troy:
We're breakin' free!
Gabriella:
We're soarin'
Troy:
Flyin'
Troy and Gabriella:
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
Troy:
If we're trying
Troy and Gabriella:
Yeah, we're breaking free
Troy:
Oh, we're breakin' free
Gabriella:
Ohhh
Troy:
Can you feel it building
Like a wave the ocean just can't control
Gabriella:
Connected by a feeling
Ohhh, in our very souls (Troy: very souls, ohh)
Troy and Gabriella:
Rising 'till it lifts us up
So every one can see
Troy:
We're breakin' free!
Gabriella:
We're soarin'
Troy:
Flyin'
Troy and Gabriella:
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
Troy:
If we're trying
Troy and Gabriella:
Yeah, we're breaking free
Troy:
Oh, we're breaking free (Gabriella: ooh)
Gabriella:
Runnin'
Troy:
Climbin'
To get to that place to
Troy and Gabriella:
Be all that we can be
Troy:
Now's the time
Troy and Gabriella:
So we're breaking free
Troy:
We're breaking free
Gabriella:
Ohhh, yeah
Troy:
More than hope
More than faith
Gabriella:
This is true
This is fate
And together
Troy and Gabriella:
We see it comin'
Troy:
More than you
More than me
Gabriella:
Not a want,
But a need
Troy and Gabriella:
Both of us
Breakin' free!
Gabriella:
Soarin'
Troy:
Flyin'
Troy and Gabriella:
There's not a star in heaven
That we can't reach
If we're trying
Troy:
Yeah, we're breaking free
Gabriella:
Breaking free
Were runnin'
Troy:
Ohhh, climbin'
Troy and Gabriella:
To get to the place
To be all that we can be (Troy: be
Now's the time (Troy: now's the time)
Gabriella:
So we're breaking free
Troy:
Ohhh, we're breaking free
Gabriella:
Ohhhh
Troy and Gabriella:
You know the world can see us
In a way that's different than who we are
