“Move Me” is about an old partner who Charli seemed to push away, even when they always held her down. Ian Kirkpatrick produced the melancoholic tone of the song.
[Verse 1]
I already know I'm letting go of something sacred
Drive us off the road, I take a good thing
And I break it
Think it's in my soul, the way I run from something real
No, I ain't changing
Wish I could surrender, give you everything I got
And let you know
[Pre-Chorus]
It's something 'bout the way you move me
Yeah, yeah
It's something 'bout the way you save my life
[Chorus]
Something 'bout the way you
Hold my body tight even on my lowest nights
Locked down by my side
Even when I'm borderline
Yeah, I don't even know why I push you away
It's something 'bout the way you
[Verse 2]
Call it what you want, I got a habit for destruction
Take all of your trust and then betray it like it's nothing
Yeah, I think it's in my soul, the way I run from something real and leave you wondering (Wondering)
Why I can't surrender, give you everything I got and let you know
[Pre-Chorus]
It's something 'bout the way you move me
Yeah, yeah
It's something 'bout the way you save my life
[Chorus]
Something 'bout the way you
Hold my body tight even on my lowest nights
Locked down by my side
Even when I'm borderline
Yeah, I don't even know why I push you away
It's something 'bout the way you
[Bridge]
Hold my body tight even on my lowest night
Locked down by my side even when I'm borderline
Yeah, I don't even know why I push you away (Push you away)
[Outro]
It's something 'bout the way you, the way you
Way you move me
Way you move me
Yeah, yeah, move me
Yeah

This song came from a writing camp that I was invited to by [US producer and songwriter] Ian Kirkpatrick. I hadn’t done a very classic camp for a while. Not because I’m anti them—I actually think I thrive quite well in them and enjoy them. I ended up writing this with [US songwriter and producer] Am...
