Discover the story of the song > Lateral Move – Adam Melchor

The protagonist's partner has been feeling stressed and doesn't know what to do. The protagonist suggests going somewhere new, whether it's driving to Calgary or flying to Lima, as long as they're together. It's like a lateral move, which means it's a change but it doesn't really make a big difference. They can go out to eat or order takeout, whatever the partner wants, and they can take as much time as they need to get ready. The most important thing is that they're together, and that's all that matters. It's a lateral move because it's a change that doesn't change much.
