Lyrics
People strive to find perfection
in a blind imperfect world.
People dive with apprehension
for that oyster with the pearl.
Some may try the path that’s winding
to find where their fortune lies,
Others find their fortune, in their lover’s eyes.
Verse: Rivers flow in all directions
into cold and crystal seas.
People go with good intentions
seeking gold in muddy streams.
Wise men choose the truth to guide them
even through love’s darkest days,
but a fool who lies, hurts love in heartless ways.
MOVE ON, MOVE ON,
get on with your life.
MOVE ON, MOVE ON,
love that cruel cuts like a knife.
Some may see a glass half empty,
you perceive that glass half full,
Some reject the love they’re getting
and they push instead of pull,
You can never make them love you
and it’s best to let them go,
that’s the only way, to save your heart and soul.
MOVE ON, MOVE ON,
get on with your life.
MOVE ON, MOVE ON,
love that cruel cuts like a knife.
