Moving On
For Amusement Only Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
that I am without you
another sleepless night thinking
of you with someone else
it didn't take you long to move on
but what will you do? who's gonna be
there when he's gone?
This time I'm not going to change my mind
Cause I'm moving on now and that
I'm feeling strong I'm not gonna waste my
time thinking of you
Once upon a time I would have done
anything just to have you here, lying
next to me but everything we fought
for everything we felt it fell to the
ground when you met someone else
This time my lifes going to work out
This time I'm not going to change my mind
Cause I'm moving on now and that
I'm feeling strong I'm not gonna waste my
time thinking of you
I'm moving on now and that
I'm feeling strong I'm not gonna waste my
time thinking of you, thinking of you
But after all that we've been through
nothings changed I still love you
But this time my lifes going to work out
This time I'm not going to change my mind
Cause I'm moving on now and that
I'm feeling strong I'm not gonna waste my
time thinking of you
I'm moving on now and that
I'm feeling strong I'm not gonna waste my
time thinking of you, thinking of you.
