Move On First Lyrics by Sadie Jean
[Verse 1]
These nights I've been stayin’ in
On red wine and adrenaline
While you're out on the west side
Now I know what it feels like
To be someone that I've never been
Sayin’ "It's fine, this time it's different"
'Cause I sleep on a fault line
Waitin' on the landslide
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I know that one day
[Chorus]
You'll get drunk at 2 a.m.
Meet someone who makes you laugh
I know you'll be happier
It’s all that you deserve
You’ll take her home and just like that
You'll pick up where we left
And you’ll fall in love with her
But before you do, just let me move on first
[Verse 2]
I don't know if I could take
Hearin' through a friend that you went on a second date
Head caught in a spiral
Laughin' right now, can’t the ground just open up?
'Cause I know what it feels like
To be on the side of the losin' team
Stressed out and I'm so scared
That I'm gonna go back there
[Pre-Chorus]
When she shows up someday
[Chorus]
You'll get drunk at 2 a.m.
Meet someone who makes you laugh
I know you'll be happier
It's all that you deserve
You'll take her home and just like that
You'll pick up where we left
And you'll fall in love with her
But before you do, just let me learn to
[Bridge]
Fall asleep, just me
Without laying on your chest
I'm begging, please
Just let me learn to
Look the other way
I can't see you at your best when I'm obsessin'
Knowin' that one day
[Chorus]
You'll get drunk at 2 a.m.
Meet someone who makes you laugh
I know you'll be happier
It's all that you deserve
You'll take her home and just like that
You'll pick up where we left
And you'll fall in love with her
But before you do
Just let me move on first
