Anyway

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No words in your mouth
I feel the pressure lifting off my chest and on to yours now
And in the background
I still think of your mouth
You've got a hold on me believe me girl if this wont work out
And I don't know
And I don't know
The truth
I never wanted you anyway
When you were mine
I wasted my time
(I wasted my time)
And I spent too much of yesterday
Calling your name
But I'll be ok
I wanna fly away
Far away to hide away
Even when we're apart I still feel like you are right here next to me
And I don't know,
I never looked to read the signs
And I don't know
The truth
I never wanted you anyway
When you were mine
I wasted my time
(I wasted my time)
And I spent too much of yesterday
Calling your name
But I'll be ok
I never wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
No, I...
I wasted my time
I never wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
no, I...
I will be ok
You anyway
Wanted you...
You anyway
Wanted you...
I never wanted you anyway
When you were mine
I wasted my time
(I wasted my time)
And I spent too much of yesterday
Calling your name
But I'll be ok
I never wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
No, I...
I wasted my time
I never wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
No, I...
I will be ok
I never wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
Wanted you anyway
Wanted you...
The song "Anyway" by New Motion is a reflective ballad about a past relationship. The singer expresses relief that the pressure of the relationship is no longer on them, and they wonder if their former partner can handle it. In the background, however, they are still hung up on their ex's mouth and the hold they have on them. The singer questions their ability to trust their ex if they were to fall again and admits to never reading the signs of the relationship's downfall.
The chorus repeats the phrase "I never wanted you anyway" with a hint of bitterness and a declaration of moving on. The singer reflects on wasting time calling their ex's name in the past, but ultimately declares that they will be okay. Despite their past, the singer still feels a strong connection to their ex, even when apart, wishing they could fly away to a place where they can escape their thoughts.
Overall, "Anyway" is a song about moving on from a past love but struggling to let go completely. It highlights the lingering feelings and indecision that often come after a breakup.

You're on you're on now
You're in control now
No words in your mouth
You're not saying anything
I feel the pressure lifting off my chest and on to yours now
I'm no longer worried, now it's your turn to worry
And in the background
Despite everything else going on
I still think of your mouth
I still think of what you have to say
You've got a hold on me believe me girl if this wont work out
I'm afraid to leave you even if it doesn't work out
And I don't know
I'm uncertain
If I could trust you when I fall
If I can trust you to catch me when I fall
And I don't know
I'm uncertain
The truth
What's really going on
I never wanted you anyway
I never really wanted you in the first place
When you were mine
When we were together
I wasted my time
I regret spending time on you
(I wasted my time)
I really regret spending time on you
And I spent too much of yesterday
I spent way too much time yesterday
Calling your name
Trying to reach out to you
But I'll be ok
I'll be fine
I wanna fly away
I want to escape
Far away to hide away
As far as I can go to be alone
Even when we're apart I still feel like you are right here next to me
I still feel your presence even when you're not here
I never looked to read the signs
I never tried to figure out what's really going on
I never wanted you anyway
I never really wanted you in the first place
No, I...
No, I really didn't want you
I will be ok
I'll be alright
Wanted you...
I don't want you
Wanted you anyway
I never wanted you in the first place
Wanted you...
I don't want you
Wanted you anyway
I never wanted you in the first place
