Movin' on
Lee Ryan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Say now, what am I to do when you love someone?
Say now, what am I to say when you're turn your back and walk away?
Say now, what am I to do when I turn my back I see you lie with him?
Yeah.
Like he lie with me, too.

I'm moving on somewhere life awaits me to appreciate me.
What you wait. Don't late me.
I'm moving on.
I'm wondering where my life'll lead. (oooh, oooh)
I'm walking down the back street hoping someone saves me.
I'm moving on.
Don't care what any body says
I just got to go my way.
Live my life from day to day.

Mama said don't worry baby,
Everything will be all right.
Mama said don't worry baby,
Everything will be all right.
Why should I listen?
Why should I care when I know you're not there?
Why should I listen?
Why should I care when I know you're not there?

How am I supposed to breathe with the poisoned air you leave?
There's a question in my mind: how many times you did deceive?
I just can't believe how you played me for a fool.
And I loved you. Yes, I loved you.

I'm moving on somewhere life awaits me to appreciate me.
What you wait. Don't late me.
I'm moving on.
I'm wondering where my life'll lead.
I'm walking down the back street hoping someone saves me.
I'm moving on.
Don't care what any body says
I just got to go my way.
Live my life from day to day. ('eah)

Moving on.
Moving on.
Moving on.
Oh, oh.

Mama said don't worry baby,
Everything will be all right.
Mama said don't worry baby,
Everything will be all right.
Why should I listen?
Why should I care when I know you're not there?
Why should I listen?
Why should I care when I know you're not there?

Now that I know that your love is gone.
Know that you'll never ever be the one. (I know)
Now that I know that you're love is gone.
Know that you'll never ever be the one (I know, I know, I know, I know)
Now that I know that your love is gone.
Know that you'll never ever be the one.

I'm moving on somewhere life awaits me to appreciate me.
What you wait. Don't late me.
I'm moving on.
I'm wondering where my life'll lead. (oooh, oooh)
I'm walking down the back street hoping someone saves me.
I'm moving on.
Don't care what anybody says
I just got to go my way.
Live my life from day to day. ('eah)

I'm moving on somewhere life awaits me to appreciate me.
What you wait. Don't late me.
I'm moving on.
I'm wondering where my life'll lead. (oooh, oooh)
I'm walking down the back street hoping someone saves me.
I'm moving on.
Don't care what anybody says




I just got to go my way.
Live my life from day to day. ('eah)
