What It Takes To Move On
Baby I've been, like, window shopping
Just thinking that you could fit nice on my arm
It's hard to take it so I tried to fake it
Hoping that you might follow me into the sun
'Cause it hurts so bad when you make me mad
And you don't even seem to notice
Got your head in the skies and your short replies
So this time I can't be bothered
So I go quiet
It's a bad habit can't deny it
Watch us just sit in silence at dinner
Tell all your friends that there ain't nothing wrong
'Cause I'm not above ignorin' the reckless things you say
And every time you come near me I just turn the other way
Tell me that you notice, baby
I haven't got much to say
Even when you're absent you got me upset like everyday
You got me emotionally distant
And why can't I stay strong?
Through apology words
You know I never can learn that this is what it takes to move on
This is what it takes
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Oh oh nah nah
This is what it takes
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Oh oh nah nah
This is what it takes
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Oh oh nah nah
This is what it takes
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Call me petty
(Petty)
Know it already
(Ready)
But tell me how I'm supposed to get this across
When you're always waiting
(Waitng)
For a better day, yeah
(Yeah)
Maybe if you made the first move it'd soften me up
It don't work like that
Can you just react?
Like it ain't so, so obvious
(Like it ain't so so so so)
What you need to do
It's a simple cue
But I just go back to basics
And I go quiet
It's a bad habit can't deny it
Watch us just sit in silence at dinner
Tell all your friends that there ain't nothing wrong
But I'm not above ignoring the reckless things you say
So every time that you pass me by I just go on and turn my face
(Oh my face, yeah)
Tell me that you notice, baby
(Hey)
I haven't got much to say
(To say)
Even when you're absent you got me upset like everyday
(Got me upset like every day, you got me)
You got me emotionally distant
(Emotionally)
And why can't I stay strong?
(Why can't I stay strong?)
Through apology words
You know I never can learn that this is what it takes to move on
This is what it takes
(ooh hoo)
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Oh oh nah nah
(Oh oh nah nah this is this is this is)
This is what it takes
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
Oh oh nah nah
This is what it takes
(Why can't I stay can't I stay strong?)
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
(Why can't I stay can't I stay strong?)
Oh oh nah nah
This is what it takes
(I don't want to let myself get me down)
Nah Nah
This is what it takes to move on
(But this is what it takes move on)
So you've finally come to see me?
Mmm
Let's talk about it
We should talk about it
Or less talk, less talk, we should touch up on it
Just thinking that you could fit nice on my arm
It's hard to take it so I tried to fake it
Hoping that you might follow me into the sun
'Cause it hurts so bad when you make me mad
And you don't even seem to notice
Got your head in the skies and your short replies
