Movin' On
Yoko and the Oh No's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Loneliness is an awful thing
I'm losing my place
Take me to where the caviar sing
And I'm leaving without a trace

And I'll keep movin' on my own
Fireside blinds my fears
You put me to work
Memories dry my tears
Even if I'm a jerk

I'll keep movin' on my own.

I sip black coffee in the mornin'
And cherish all my days
Things are lookin' a little foggy
Sitting here in this haze

I'll keep movin on my own

Baby you got me hogtied
There's nothin' I can do
Baby I'll take the pain
Cuz I'm a slave to you

I'll keep movin on my own

You can use me
You can lose me
We all have a choice but yours just don't matter as much as mine

Give me attention
In every dimension
Take my hand and make me feel good tonight





I'll keep movin' on my own
