Please don't ask me to stay
I'm leaving this town
Don't worry now
Believe me as I believe that
Luck is on my side
The future is mine
If I can find
A way through these strange days of my life
We live so fast
(Motion, motion)
No time to waste
(Use it, use it)
We live so fast
(Motion, motion)
Make the first step and reach out for tomorrow
We live so fast
(Motion, motion)
We can't stand still
(Move it, move it)
We live so fast
(Motion, motion)
Move out of my way it's time to make it happen
The streets, deserted and cold
They're not paved with gold
But I don't care
For those who think young will still survive
Making their move
Hoping to prove
That they can face
This big city, small world, big time
(Chorus)
But now I know their ways
I found my place
Saw their true face
There's nothing to stay for so I'll go
I'll pick up the phone
Still searching for home
We live so fast
Alone but not lonely I move on
(Motion, motion)
(Use it, use it)
(Motion, motion)
Make the first step and reach out for tomorrow
(Chorus)
