My Next Move

Didn't hear the words you were saying 'til you spelled them out
Couldn't see the plans you were making' til you got to our house
Saw the empty boxes stacked
Told me that I gotta get packed
Your love has said goodbye
And so should I

Strange to see your whole life fit the bed of a truck
Hard to fight with someone who's given up
Said if I'd have thought it through
Maybe planned out my next move
We could have made it work
Avoided the hurt

Well my next move is past that city limit sign
Them finer things big city dreams were yours not mine
If you've got your mind made up I guess there's nothing I can do
But plan my next move
And my next move is getting over

Back when our paradise was a piece of land
Working two jobs to put that ring on your hand
Then paradise turned into a prison
Things you never had suddenly were missing
Started talking 'bout lookin' around
Movin' downtown

My next move is past that city limit sign
Them finer things big city dreams were yours not mine
If you've got your mind made up I guess there's nothing I can do
But plan my next move
And my next move is getting over

You saw something glitter
Couldn't wait for me to turn gold
But those billion stars won't shimmer
Without someone there to hold
And your penthouse view of mainstreet
Full of cars and flashing lights
Can't beat the ones that we shared
On those summer nights

My next move is past that city limit sign
Them finer things big city dreams were yours not mine
If you've got your mind made up I guess there's nothing I can do
But plan my next move is past that city limit sign
Them finer things big city dreams were yours not mine
If you've got your mind made up I guess there's nothing I can do
But plan my next move
And my next move is getting over you
