Lyrics
CHORUS 1
I can't seem to move on
I can't seem to move on
Oh, I want to move on
VERSE 1
Had a dream about you
You had a baby in your arms
You were glad to see me, you were warm
You told me not to worry
You said the baby wasn?t mine
I was glad to meet her in my mind
CHORUS 2
I can?t seem to move on
I can?t seem to move on
Oh, I want to move on
VERSE 2
Woke up in the darkness
Wondering why would you appear
You?d been masked in ages, lost in years
Had you come to save me
Keep me away from hurt and harm
Was I that baby in your arms
CHORUS 3
I can?t seem to move on
I can?t seem to move on
Oh, I want to move on
BRIDGE
Stuck in my memory, afraid of growing old
I am a child left to stand the cold, no hand to hold
I wish I could wake and get on with today
No way, no way
VERSE 3
Had a dream about you
You were standing all alone
Your hands were empty, your child had grown
I reached for you to hold me
But we were just to far apart
So I took my hands and placed them on my heart
CHORUS 4
I can?t seem to move on
I can?t seem to move on
Oh, I want to move on
CHORUS 5
I can't seem to move on
I can't seem to move on
Maybe I can move on
