November 2003
I’m constantly thinking about the past
When I should be over it and head to the future
Crying over something that happened months ago
When I should be dealing with the present instead
[Chorus:]
Cause I gotta move on
I’m brave and I’m strong
I was brave in the past
Why can’t I be now
I don’t want to be a girl
Who lives in the past
I want to be a girl
Who lives in the present
I’m never thinking straight
I’m always falling behind
I better keep my grip
Before I fall back down that cliff
[Chorus:]
Cause I gotta move on
I’m brave and I’m strong
I was brave in the past
Why can’t I be now
I don’t want to be a girl
Who lives in the past
I want to be a girl
Who lives in the present
I’ve gotta move on
