Move Over Darling Lyrics

Our lips shouldn't touch
(Move over darling)
I like it too much
(Move over darling)
That gleam in your eyes is no big surprise anymore
'Cause you fooled me before

I'm all in a spin
(Move over darling)
About to give in
(Move over darling)
And though it's not right, I'm too weak to fight it somehow
'Cause I want you right now

The way you sigh, has me waving my conscience bye-bye
You can call me a fickle thing
But I'm practically yours forever, because

I yearn to be kissed
(Move over darling)
How can I resist
(Move over darling)
You captured my heart and now that I'm no longer free
Make love to me

The way you sigh
Has me waving my conscience goodbye
You can call me a fickle thing
But I'm practically yours forever, because
I yearn to be kissed
(Move over darling)
How can I resist
(Move over darling)
Please give me your love, I'm longing for you
I need all your love, honest I do

You captured my heart and now that I'm no longer free
Make love to me
(Move over darling)
Make love to me
(Move over darling)

Make love to me
(Move over darling)
Make love to me
(Move over darling)
Move over darling
Move over darling
