Queen Talks

Freddie Mercury, BBC Radio 1 29 May 1989

It’s the prime example what we were talking about before, I mean, the track Breakthru sort of stemmed from Roger, really, it’s a basically his track. But the sort of a capella vocal bit in front was from someone else, as we’ve sad: we have 30 tracks, and that was a little piece that I thought was quite good, and I didn’t wanted to go miss, and I just sad: “Oh, well, we’ll just put it in front of Breakthru. ”It’s basically another song, sort of seem to go away quite nicely… so, it just snipped it.

Lyrics

When love breaks up
When the dawn light wakes up
A new life is born
Somehow I have to make this final breakthrough
Now

I wake up
Feel just fine
Your face
Fills my mind
I get religion quick
Because you're looking divine
Honey you're touching something you're touching 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 breakthrough - oh yeah

Breakthrough these barriers of pain
Breakthrough 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 breakthrough
Now!

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 out of 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
That would really be a breakthrough

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthrough
Oh yeah
Breakthrough breakthrough

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthrough

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthrough

Breakthrough
