"Moving On" lyrics

"Moving On"

Plastic palm trees fill his room
And the lasers
Leave little green stars on his skin
The room has started to spin
But this is a year of saying yes
So, yes

If you say you're okay
Then I'm okay too
So we keep it moving
Make like I never knew you
So I take a lover
In the afternoon
It's time to move on

His skin feels so smooth
It reminds me of you
He's taking a year out to find himself
Sometimes two different things can be true
These days, I get so lonely
I only ever let strangers hold me
I used to be so good at this

If you say you're okay
Then I'm okay too
So we keep it moving
Make like I never knew you
So I take a lover
In the afternoon
It's time to move on

I feel the sunlight through his skin
Like lazy days on the shore
Swimming out in the depth of his eyes
Past the point of no return

If you swear you're okay
Then I'm okay too
So we keep it moving
Make like I never knew you
So I take a lover
In the afternoon
It's time to move on

When I was in his arms
I remembered how it felt
To do the things
That we did not
And yeah, it felt right
He said
"When things stop moving, they wither and die"
He said
"I hope what we just did helps you get by"
Get by
Goodbye
