Ain't Nobody
Rufus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What was I gonna do?
I let myself go
And now we're flyin' through the stars
I hope this night will last forever
I've been waitin' for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
Filled my heart with your bliss
Gave me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
And now we're flyin' through the stars
I hope this night will last forever
Oh oh oh oh
Ain't nobody
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way
Ain't nobody
Loves me better than you
I wait for night time to come
And bring you to me
I can't believe I'm the one
I was so lonely
I feel like no one could feel
I must be dreamin'
I want this dream to be real
I need this feelin'
I make my wish upon a star
And hope this night will last forever
oh oh oh oh
CHORUS
First you put your arms around me
Then you put your charms around me
I can't resist this sweet surrender
Oh my nights are warm and tender
We stare into each other's eyes
And what we see is no surprise
Got a feeling most would treasure
And a love so deep we cannot measure
CHORUS
The song "Ain't Nobody" by Rufus featuring Chaka Khan was released in 1983 and has since become a classic hit in the R&B and soul genres. The lyrics describe the power of love and how it can make someone feel alive, free and happy.
The opening lines express how love can happen effortlessly and naturally, even when we are not expecting it. The song then goes on to describe the intense emotions that come with falling in love, the feeling of being held close, and the inexplicable desire to let go and be with that person.
The chorus repeats the line "Ain't nobody loves me better" with a sense of conviction and confidence that suggests that the singer has found the love of their life. The song's outro repeatedly highlights the depth of the love that the singer has found, emphasizing the idea that there is simply no one who could love them better.
Ultimately, "Ain't Nobody" is a celebration of the power of love to lift us up, make us feel alive, and bring us joy.
