|
You ask me to give up the hand of the girl I love |
|
You tell me I'm not the man she's worthy of |
|
But who are you to tell her who to love? |
|
That's up to her, yes, and the Lord above |
|
You better move on |
|
Well, I know you can buy her fancy clothes and diamond rings |
|
But I believe she's happy with me without those things |
|
Still you beg me to set her free |
|
But, my friend, that will never be |
|
You better move on |
|
I can't blame you for lovin' her |
|
But can't you understand, man, she's my girl? |
|
And I'm never gonna let her go |
|
'cause I love her so |
|
I think you better go, now, I'm gettin' mighty mad |
|
You ask me to give up the only love I've ever had |
|
Maybe I would, oh, but I love her so |
|
Never gonna let her go |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |
|
You better move on (you better move on) |

You better move on |
