"'Only Over You'" is a song by the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac from their 1982 album 'Mirage'. It was written by Christine McVie for her boyfriend at the time, the Beach Boys' drummer Dennis Wilson. The record sleeve states, "With thanks to Dennis Wilson for inspiration." Biographer Jon Stebbins characterized the song as McVie's "last declaration of love" toward Wilson.
