"We Can't Move To This" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding. The lyrics depict a relationship that has lost its spark and intimacy. The song describes a couple who used to have a strong connection, enjoying each other's company, dancing, and feeling the rhythm of the night together. However, something has changed between them, and they can no longer find that harmony. The protagonist expresses her frustration that they can't even communicate or show affection anymore. She realizes that they are not in love and acknowledges that their relationship is not working. Despite feeling alone and wanting to break free, the protagonist finds solace in dancing on her own. She decides to let go of the relationship and move on, as they are no longer compatible. The repetition of "We can't move to this" signifies their inability to sync emotionally or physically. The song captures the feeling of being stuck in a stagnant relationship, where the couple can't even have a conversation and all affection is gone. It highlights the importance of connection, compatibility, and communication in maintaining a healthy and fulfilling relationship. Ultimately, the protagonist chooses to let go and find happiness in her own independence.
