歌词
[intro]
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
[verse 1]
I saw your old photograph today (hey)
Remembered our first meet-up that day (yeah)
How your bright eyes took my breath away (away)
But how I couldn’t convince you to stay (to stay)
[verse 2]
I tried looking for somebody new (not you)
Something so hard for me to do (so hard to do)
Wishing you wanted me too (me too, me too)
Cause no one measures up to you, to you (to you)
[chorus]
Why can’t I move on? Mmm
Why can’t I let go? Mmm
In everything I dream,
It’s you that haunts me so.
The light of your smile,
Warmth of your embrace.
No one can compare, mmm
No one takes your place. Mmm
[verse 3]
I dance with your memory ‘til midnight, (all night)
My heart aching until daylight, (daylight)
‘Cause no, I don’t feel alright, (not alright)
Not out of mind, only my sight (my sight, my sight)
[verse 4]
Trying to deny,
What I feel or why,
Your laugh gets me so high,
But it was so easy for you to say goodbye (goodbye)
[chorus]
Why can’t I move on? Mmm
Why can’t I let go? Mmm
In everything I dream,
It’s you that haunts me so.
The light of your smile,
Warmth of your embrace.
No one can compare, mmm
No one takes your place. Mmm
[bridge]
Praying time will heal,
Hoping something new could be real,
But in truth they only reveal (reveal)
The deepest depths of how I feel (this is how I feel)
[chorus]
Why can’t I move on? Mmm
Why can’t I let go? Mmm
In everything I dream,
It’s you that haunts me so.
The light of your smile,
Warmth of your embrace.
No one can compare, mmm
No one takes your place. Mmm
[Outro]
So I stand here alone (alone)
Chilled to the bone (bone)
With a heart made of stone (stone)
From the seeds you have sewn (sewn)
‘Cause no one measures up
And no one ever will
I stay in eternal agony, mmm
Loving you still, mmm
[acapella]
Oh why can’t I just move on?
Why can’t I ever let go?
[octave/key change]
[reprise chorus]
Why can't I move on?
Why can't I let go?
In everything I dream,
It’s you that haunts me so.
The light of your smile,
Warmth of your embrace.
No one can compare, mmm
No one takes your place. Mmm
[verse]
Trying to deny,
What I feel or why,
Your laugh gets me so high,
But it was so easy for you to say goodbye (goodbye)
Cause no one measures up
And no one ever will
I stay in endless agony
For Loving you still
Loving you still
(And I always will)
[outro]
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
