well, her eyes are starry and her head is clear
at last no way she'll shed a tear
for the past.
and she's not sorry for any disaster
she's havin a blast her
feet start skippin she's moving faster.
She's moved on, she's moved on,
shes's practically gone.
well, the sun beams burn and the world turns
like a spun quarter, everything's done for her.
and she's the first page on everybody's book
all the boys, will take a second look.
her phone's ringin off the hook
vibrating, its so exciting.
she's moved on, she's moved on,
she's practically gone.
yeah this girl is charmed today,
she casts all the shadows away
she's enchanted
and if she got to play, and that was ok
and the man that said
what doesnt kill you makes ya stronger
sometimes i think he was wrong there.
looking back last year was miserable
and she's livin the dream its not so dismal
she's living like a child
untamed innocent and wild
she's moved on, she's moved on,
she's practically gone.
