[INTRO] (I don't usually — ) (Never mind) (Just listen) [VERSE 1] I been around I know how rooms feel I know the difference between presence And the specific kind of pull That makes you forget What you were even looking for You’re not anything dramatic You’re not some movie moment (Its just the way you move) Just the way you moved through the space Like the room was already yours Before you decided Whether you wanted it I watched you disagree with someone About something small And the way you held your ground Without raising your voice Without performing certainty — Just having it (Quietly) In your whole body [Pre-chorus builds] [PRE-CHORUS] ( been trying to place what this is) (It ain't love — I know what that costs) (This is something earlier) (Something that moves like you do...) [CHORUS] It's the way you move (the way you move) Like gravity made an exception for you It's the way you move (the way you move) Like you been the answer to a question I forgot I was asking It's the way you think And the way you stand And the way you take up space The smile that owns that face (It’s contagious...) It's just the way you move [VERSE 2 – fuller, more specific, the amazement more visible now] You laugh at your own jokes Before the punchline lands And you're right every time Which should be annoying And isn't You got opinions about things I never thought to have opinions about And you say them like they're obvious Like the world is clearly this way And you're just the first one Who bothered to notice And then you move across the room To get a drink or check your phone Or nothing Just move And I lose the thread Of whatever I was thinking Because nothing I was thinking Was as interesting As the way you do that (I'm not falling) (I'm just — ) (..adjacent to falling) (this is new… thanks for the space to enjoy this) [PRE-CHORUS] I been trying to place what this is It ain't love — I know what that costs This is something earlier Something that lives before the name (Something that moves like you do...) (Like you do...) [CHORUS] It's the way you move (the way you move) Like gravity made an exception for you It's the way you move (the way you move) Like you been the answer to a question I forgot I was asking It's the way you think And the way you stand And the way you take up space The smile that owns that face (It’s contagious...) It's just the way you move [BRIDGE] (I've met people before) (I've liked people before) (I’ve loved) (That's not what this is) This is the specific thing Where you notice someone doing something ordinary Making a point, passing a joint Just existing. (And you don't say it out loud) Because saying it out loud Makes it a thing (And right now it's just) Being genuinely amazed By someone just being themselves I don't know what to do with that yet (But I know I don't want it to stop) [FINAL CHORUS] It's the way you move (the way you move) Like gravity made an exception for you It's the way you move (the way you move) Like you been the answer to a question I forgot I was asking It's the way you think And the way you stand And the way you take up space The smile that owns that face (It’s contagious...) It's just the way you move You move (You move) (The way you move...) [OUTRO ] ...yeah ...the way you move
