The Man Who Can't Be Moved Lyrics
where i first saw you
gonna camp in my sleeping bag,
I'm not gonna move
got some words on cardboard
got your picture in my head
saying: if you see this girl can you tell her where i am
some try to hand me money
they don't understand
I'm not broke
I'm just a broken hearted man
i know it makes no sense
what else can i do
and how can i move on
when I'm still in love with you
and find that your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder
where on this earth i could be
thinking maybe you'd come back here
to the place that we'd meet
and you'd see me waiting for you
on the corner of the street
so I'm not moving
I'm not moving
i say there's someone I'm waiting for if its a day a month or year
got to stand my ground
even if it rains or snows
if she changes her mind
this is the first place she will go
and find that your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder
where on this earth i could be
thinking maybe you'd come back here
to the place that we'd meet
and you'd see me waiting for you
on the corner of the street
so I'm not moving
I'm not moving
I'm not moving
that's waiting in on a girl
woooaa wooo
there are no holes in his shoes
but a big hole in his world
ooooo
maybe i'll get famous for the man who cant be moved
and maybe you wont mean to but you'll see me on the news
and you'd come running to the corner
cos you'll know it's just for you
I'm the man who cant be moved
I'm the man who cant be moved
and find that your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder
where on this earth i could be
thinking maybe you'd come back here
to the place that we'd meet
and you'd see me waiting for you
on the corner of the street
so I'm not moving
I'm not moving
I'm not moving
I'm not moving
gonna camp in my sleeping bag and I'm not gonna move

I know some people might not agree with me, but whenever I listen to these lyrics, and especially when I watch the film clip, this song means to me about the feeling you get after your true love leaves you or breaks up with you.
The lyrics saying that "IF one day you wake and find that your missing me....MAYBE you'll come back to the place where we'd meet...So I'm not moving." show me that he's desperately wishing she'd come back. He's hoping she'll be back so he's is grasping for straws and hoping for anything.
IF and MAYBE show that he's just trying to have faith in something that won't happen.
I agree without any doubt in my mind. My boyfriend dumped me 3 weeks ago... and.... its' best that I move on, but these lyrics....... are what I feel.

Yeah I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head... except I'm not sure I agree with your interpretation of "IF" and "MAYBE." I think that instead of having faith in something that won't happen, it is something less definite; I think it's less of a giving up on the possibility and more of a wishful thinking/hopeful kind of situation.

When I first listened to this song, this is what came to my mind. A boy who's been in love with his best friend forever. Like he loves her and he will wait for her to realize they're perfect together. He loves her so much he doesn't mind how long it takes her to love him back. That's my opinion, but it may be 'cause something similar is happening to me. He tells me that everytime.

"some try to hand me money they don't understand I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man i know it makes no sense what else can i do and how can i move on when I'm still in love with you"

This song makes me shed tears every time I hear it, I probably have some problems with me

I absolutely love this song, the lyrics "If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go" is the bit that chokes me up. I love the story that this man is so willing to get this woman back that he'll wait for her "if it's a day, a month, a year" because he doesn't know where she is to find her himself, he thinks if she wants him back, she'll know where to go. It's absoultely beautiful. :)
@Hilikus421 i agree.
@Hilikus421 i agree.

alright I think I know exactly what he is saying...
I'm actually going through a similar experience at this very moment..
What he means is that he's been in love with this girl forever and she doesn't see him in that way. He's going to wait for her, however long it takes because he's in love with her and he refuses to stop.

Pretty obvious the meaning of this song!

This song is pretty amazing, even though I'm not that much a fan of the band. Describes how i've felt for the last 4 months!

in this song a person is going crazy in love having a fresh love.. it could be second chance a person asking for but i would prefer when a person is telling her that he gonna be there no matter what happen , ow many pain and how many disaster goes on..how many heartbreak are going to be there he'll be there no matter what other thinks.. maybe one day she'll realize he the one.. <3 i love this song that i could cry..

thank god for the person who submitted these lyrics! hurrah :)
