original broadway cast of in transit - the moving song lyrics
[ali]
i ran 26 miles
26 miles!
make that 26 point 2
and finally forgot about the past three years and you
but the c train got the best of me
at 26 point 3…
it was summer in seattle
you were a tourist at the pier
you asked me for directions
i asked you out for a beer
i’d never laughed so much before
that date turned into eighteen more
you and i were starting to groove
(spoken)
why did i quit school
and move across the country for a guy i just met?
it’s new york! my brother’s there
i’ll get my own place. it’ll be an adventure
(sung)
it’s time to move
one autumn night in prospect park
out of the blue
you had a brilliant thought
let’s pay one rent instead of two
so i decided there and then
to pack my bags once again
even though my mom did not approve
(spoken)
i mean, i know we haven’t been together that long
but it feels so right
i swear ++ i know what i’m doing
(sung)
it’s time to move
i had fallen into love
things had fallen into place
two winters passed and suddenly
you said you needed sp+ce
said you couldn’t see your life with me
no matter how you tried
so i packed my things
crashed with a friend
for weeks on end i cried
found my own place in harlem through a craigslist ad
dark and small and lonely, but the only choice i had
the seasons came, the seasons went
i worked, i slept, i paid my rent
and thought of all the ways i could improve
(spoken)
i’m keeping busy just like everyone says to do
i’m reading, i’m trying new activities
i’m running
and running
and running
toward what?
(sung)
so now i get the news that someone else is moving too
you met a girl, and look at that
she’s moving in with you
and here and now, it’s clear to see
you’re heading forward ++ without me
there’s nothing i can do or say or prove
all the endless nights of crying
all the theories, all the trying
all the chasing and devotion
what’s the point of all this motion?
i’m still stuck here standing still
and you’re still gone
it’s time to move on
time to move on…
it’s time to move on
