[Verse 1]
It's getting late, your eyes are closed
And mine are wide awake (But still)
I can never go on, I can never go on like (Just like)
I'm begging just to see your eyes again
I can never go on (I can never go on)

Should I even care that you didn't say anything?
I tried to do my best, should've given her better things
(Like rings) And roses

Never do reply when I hint the message
I try to smell my best with a bottle of essence
Getting to the point with style and romance
And I could never go on, I could never go on

[Chorus]
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh

[Verse 2]
Huh, she's showing signs of motion as she wipes the sleep away
I can get through this, I can get through this ride
(You gotta give a little, but it takes a lot to get over you)
'Cause it makes no sense to be permanent
If you're not feeling it, right? Right? Right!
[Chorus]
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh

[Bridge]
It's a terrible thing, to know what you want
And to know you can't have it at all
I wanted was to let you know how I
It's a terrible thing, it's a terrible, it's a terrible thing, oh
A terrible, terrible thing, oh yeah!

[Chorus]
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh
The way she moves away, oh
I wanted her to stay a while don't go away, oh

(The way she moves) The way she moves
The way she moves
The way she moves, the way she moves
The way she moves
