Can't We Move This? Lyrics

Tell me all you are for me
And I'll come back with an offer
Can't you know there’s all I need

You mean everything to me
Time you left for it to seek it
It's fine, the way that it should be

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me all you are for me
And our love is an illusion(?)
Just be anything you see (?)

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me I'm your man
I don't want to live without it but I can
A little overwhelmed, can barely even stand
It could have not have turned out with or with a plan
I sure love the way the feeling's going

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me I'm your man
I don't want to live without it but I can
A little overwhelmed, can barely even stand
It could have not have turned out with or with a plan
I sure love the way the feeling's going

Tell me all you are for me 
And I'll come back with an offer
Can't you know there’s all I need
 
You mean everything to me
Time you left for it to seek it 
It's fine, the way that it should be

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong 
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me all you are for me                                                 
And our love is an illusion(?) 
Just be anything you see (?)

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong 
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me I'm your man 
I don't want to live without it but I can
A little overwhelmed, can barely even stand  
It could have not have turned out with or with a plan  
I sure love the way the feeling's going

Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong 
Can't we move this along
Can't we get it wrong

Tell me I'm your man 
I don't want to live without it but I can
A little overwhelmed, can barely even stand  
It could have not have turned out with or with a plan  
I sure love the way the feeling's going

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

yeah it reminds me of a better version of that song too :p

I think he's saying he wants progression in some way,, and that he's asking somebody for help. Like in Green Mind where he asks "Can't you help move it along."
