Movin' Away

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Moving away from your smile and your tenderness

Away from the things that we planned

Away from your kiss and your warm caress

Away from the touch of your hand

Surely you know that I don't wanna go

And I'll write you a line everyday

So give me the kiss that I'm gonna' miss

For soon I'll be moving away

Darling I've something to tell you

It isn't easy to say

My pa's gonna found a job out of town

And soon we'll be moving away

Moving away from your smile and your tenderness

Away from the things that we planned

Away from your kiss and your warm caress

Away from the touch of your hand

Surely you know that I don't wanna go

And I'll write you a line everyday

So give me the kiss that I'm gonna' miss

For soon I'll be moving away

They say that I'll soon forget you

There I can make a new start

But why can't they see that you'll never be

Moving away from my heart

Moving away from your smile and your tenderness

Away from the things that we planned

Away from your kiss and your warm caress

Away from the touch of your hand

Surely you know that I don't wanna' go

And I'll write you a line everyday

So give me the kiss that I'm gonna' miss

For sure, I'll be moving away

Darling I'll soon be returning

Then we can laugh at today

And then you could see, just like a dream

When I was moving away

Moving away from your smile and your tenderness

Away from the things that we planned

Away from your kiss, and your warm caress

Away from the touch of your hand

Surely you know that I don't wanna' go

And I'll write you a line everyday

So give me the kiss that I'm gonna' miss

For soon I'll be moving away

Away, away
