Your Move
Hablot Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't wanna play this one two one two
Too soon too soon
I can't even say i love you love you
Cause you want to ooh
Cause you needed it more
And I don't care for
Ooh
It ain't in the consequences
Thats where my confidence lies
You took down my defenses
And let your armor inside
I want you to know that I want to take back whats mine
And you'll realize
Your move your move
I don't wanna play this one two one two
Too soon too soon
I can't even say I love you love you
In Hablot Brown feat. Rob Araujo's song Your Move, the singer is reluctant to enter into a romantic relationship with the person they are speaking to. They are hesitant and want to take things slow, but the other person is eager to pursue a deeper connection. The singer recognizes that the other person needs this connection more than they do, but they are unwilling to put their own heart on the line too soon. They are guarded and have built up defenses, which the other person has managed to break down.
The singer asserts that they don't care about the consequences of not pursuing a relationship, but rather their confidence lies in their ability to protect themselves emotionally. They want to take back control of the situation and not let the other person dictate the pace of the relationship. However, the singer still has a desire for the other person, which is evident in the repetition of "your move" and the admission that they "can't even say I love you."
