I Move On
Renée Zellweger Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

[VELMA]
While truckin' down the road of life
Although all hope seems gone
I just move on

[ROXIE]
When I can't find a single star
To hang my wish upon

I just move on
I mooooove on

[VELMA]
I run so fast
A shot gun blast
Can't hurt me not one bit

[ROXIE]
I'm on my toes
'cause heaven knows
A moving target's hard to hit

[VELMA&ROXIE]
So as we play
In life's ballet
We're not the dying swan
We just move on
We mooooove on

[ROXIE]
Just when it seems
We're out of dreams
And things have got us down
[VELMA]
We don't despair
We don't go there
We hang our bonnets out of town

[VELMA&ROXIE]
So there's no doubt
We're well cut out
To run life's marathon
We just move on
We just move on

So fleet of foot
We can'ts stay put

We just move on
Yes we move on!
