Carey briefly describes each of the songs on MOVIN’ ON. “That Was Her This Is Now” is “about being the new woman in a man’s life;’ “What Goes Around” opines that “what you put out (in the Universe) comes back to you;” “Moving On” (the title track) talks about “when relationships, passion, and communication have run their course, it’s time to move on;” “Stand” is about “never giving up on your dreams;” “Do I Dare” discusses “taking the next step in life;” “He’s Not Mr. Right, He’s Mr. Right Now” is “just having fun in your present relationship…with no ties.” “Out With The Girls” finds Carey singing that “girls – poor, young, rich, and old – all need a night out on the town!;’ “Faith” details “being in the wrong relationship and you don’t know it…you’ve gotta have a little faith in yourself.” “Newsflash” ends the disc on a positive note: “when you think things are bad, life can turn on a dime…don’t ever give up!”
