Lyrics

Moving On

Don't hate me
We watched the river flow
To see where it would go
But as time slips by I think that we both know

You must see
You are the soul mate I adore
Inside my heart for evermore
But I could not change mistakes I made before

I'm moving on, I have to go
I think that we both know
It's how it has to be
I'm leaving not because I want to
This is what I must do
I need to set you free

It's crazy
How selfish we become
Now all I feel is numb
I feel so alone, so lonely with you gone

Believe me
You have a sea of love to share
You can blossom anywhere
Let the sunshine in your time is still to come

I can't pretend it doesn't hurt me
When I recall the memory
Of the tears that filled your eyes
Yet one thing that was a revelation
Your strength of feeling for me
I didn't realise

We both knew that this day would come
But we both can look back upon
The time that we spent as one
The love that we shared
How deeply we cared
I'm still hoping and I still pray
That our friendship will find a way
You will reach out to me someday
We share a bond that is rare
Love will always be there

I'm moving on, I have to go
I think that we both know
It's how it's going to be
(I'm moving on)
I'm leaving not because I want to
This is what I must do
I need to set you free
(I'm moving on)
I can't pretend it doesn't hurt me
When I recall the memory
Of the tears that filled your eyes
(It's time for me to move on)
Yet one thing that was a revelation
Your strength of feeling for me
I didn't realise

I'm moving on
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
It's time for me to move on
