Lyrics
Compulsion
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.
Charms in limited supply and refusing to stretch
That indefinable nothing somehow keeps pushing you
Finding the right words can be a problem
How many times must it be said
theres no plan it had to happen
Got to move on sometime and its about time
By putting one foot in front of another
And repeating the process cross over the street
You're free to change your mind
Strength through diversity
Couldn't have put it more plainly
Got to move on sometimes
Got to move on sometimes
Got to move on sometimes
Got to move on sometimes
Charms in limited supply under Threat of extinction
That indefinable nothing somehow motivates you
Finding the right words can be a problem
How many times must it be said
Theres no plan it had to happen
Got to move on sometimes and its about time
By putting one foot in front of another
And repeating the process cross over the street
You're free to change your mind
Strength through Diversity
Couldn't have put it more plainly
Got to move on sometimes
