"Movin'" lyrics - GREGORY PORTER

I feel just like a kite
But one without a string
One that is floating around
I don't know what tomorrow will bring

I feel just like a bird
But one without a home
One that is floating over endless oceans
Empty horizons, no rest in sight

What does it mean
When you say you want to be free
Free to sing, free to dance
Free to let someone take a glance
In a world that's free of me

Then you say, then you say you're moving on
Then you say, "I got other plans"
Oh girl oh
You're moving in the wrong direction
Moving in the wrong direction, yeah
You're moving in the wrong direction
So far away from me

You're moving in the wrong direction
Moving in the wrong direction, yeah
You're moving in the wrong direction
So far away from me

Then you say you're moving on
Then you say you got other plans
Oh girl

You're moving in the wrong direction
Moving in the wrong direction, yeah
Lady, you're moving in the wrong direction
So far away from me

I wish my Momma was here
A strong, strong steady rose
She would know, what to do
What to say, how to pray
To make things better

What does it mean
When you say you want to be free
Free to sing, free to dance
Free to let someone take a glance
In a world that's free of me

You're moving in the wrong direction
Moving in the wrong direction
You're moving in the wrong direction
So far away from me

Well you're moving, well you're moving
Well you're moving, well you're moving away
So far away
So far away from me, oh

Well you're moving, well you're moving
Well you're moving, well you're moving
Well you're moving, well you're moving
Well you're moving, well you're moving, oh
Far away from me
