I Won't Move Over
Hollies · Other Songs - Hollies
Say what you want, think what you like
You won't persuade me
My flame will keep on burning I know it's not over
My eyes don't see, my ears don't hear
All those stories
Going in circles, circulating
That it's over
She gave to me, I gave to her
A token of our love
On the understanding that we'd give them back
As a message that we're through
I still got mine and I ain't go hers
That's how I know for sure
No need to say no more
I don't wanna hear no more
Your move was a loser and she won't forget
How you used her
Oh, I know she'll refuse you
You're a two-timing loser
And I won't move over
Verse 3
Verse 4
Say what you want and think what you like
You won't persuade me
My flame keeps on burning and I won't move over
My eyes don't see, my ears don't hear
All those stories
Going in circles
Chorus
