Moving On
Josh Clutter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I
I need to find myself
I used to love
But now my love's all spent

What do you see in us when all you do is cry
I won't second guess it's time to say goodbye
But oh It'll be alright
These lessons you learn in time

But hearts break
And leaves change
But my soul still stays the same
I'm moving on
It's not you I blame
We don't see the same way
I won't live my life in vain
I'm moving on

I
I tried to give you everything (hmm oooh)
I hope you see (ooh)
We weren't meant to be

But oh It'll be alright
These lessons you learn in time

But hearts break
And leaves change
But my soul still stays the same
I'm moving on
It's not you I blame
We don't see the same way
I won't live my life in vain
I'm moving on

But hearts break
And leaves change
But my soul stays the same
It's not you oh that I blame
I'm moving on

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Josh Clutter's song Moving On express a feeling of the need to find oneself and move on from a relationship that has lost its spark. The opening lines, "I need to find myself, I used to love, but now my love's all spent" convey a sense of realization and admission that the love that once existed between the couple is no longer there. The following lines, "What do you see in us when all you do is cry, I won't second guess it's time to say goodbye" suggest a growing sense of detachment and hint that the relationship has become unfulfilling for both parties.


Despite the heartbreak and the imminent end of the relationship, the song's chorus emphasizes a sense of personal growth and moving on. The lines, "But hearts break and leaves change, but my soul still stays the same, I'm moving on" signify that even though relationships can end or change, individuals still hold on to their sense of self and continue on with their lives. The lyrics suggest that personal growth comes from experiencing the ups and downs of life, and that even though the heartbreak is painful, it is a learning experience.
