Ain't Nobody
BONES OWENS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you say over
Is it really over?
Cause I could hold ya
Til you change your mind
You're like a fire
Burning brighter
I'd put you out
But I know that there ain't no use in trying

Ain't nobody gonna take the place of you
Ain't gon' make no difference bout the things they do
Ain't nobody gonna take the place of you
In my life

When you say higher
I can take you higher
And farther
Than you wanna go
Cause I love ya
Like the sun loves shining
Like the diamond blinding
On the hand that I hold

Ain't nobody gonna take the place of you
Ain't gon' make no difference bout the things they do




Ain't nobody gonna take the place of you
In my life
