Nothing Without You
Boyzone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Taste the salt and the breeze as it blows by
All the sand is as white as snow
Hear the waves as they race to the finish line
See the water sparkling diamond like
Every cloud must have stayed at home
In the sky and it's blazing
All the colors it makes
As it falls to the sea so amazing
It ain't nothing without you
Through your eyes everything is so beautiful
Didn't know love could be this incredible
And I feel so alive when you touch me
Every star seems to shoot
Through the sky like it's landing
And the moon is so close
And it's shining so bright that it's blinding
It ain't nothing without you
On the cobble stone streets in the summer light
Taste the salt and the breeze as it blows by
All the sand is as white as snow
It ain't nothing without you
If you weren't in my world
All the days and the nights
Would still be black and white
It ain't nothing without you
On the cobble stone streets in the summer lights
Taste the salt and the breeze as it blows by
All the sand is as white as snow
It ain't nothing without you
On the cobble stone streets in the summer lights
Taste the salt and the breeze as it blows by
All the sand is as white as snow
