Nobody but you
Cassie ft. The Dream Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm all wrapped up in his arms,
But you're the one I really want
Truly he's the nicest guy, but I want you and I dont know why

We fought more than Tyson and Holyfield,
Something about us felt so real
Now what next to do?
I dont want nobody but you

I dont,

I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you put me thru
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you're still my boo
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you put me thru
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you (but you)

I seen you in the store yesterday
I was hoping you would look my way
In line with things i used to buy us,
Reminded me of me and you

Im still wondering how i feel
So strong about something i left last year
Its scandalous how I sleep beside dude,
But all dream of is you

I dont,

I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you put me thru

I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you're still my boo
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you put me thru
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you (but you)

U got me sittin (right here)
With my back facing this man
You're tormenting me, in my serenity,
I cant get you outta my head

I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you
After all you put me thru (eh)
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you (you) (eh)
After all you're still my boo
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you (but you, eh)
After all you put me thru
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want
I dont want nobody but you (but you)

Oh
Oh




Oh
Cassie!

Overall Meaning

In "Nobody But You," Cassie and The Dream sing about a complicated love triangle. While Cassie is in a relationship with someone who is a good guy, she still can't help but long for The Dream. They had a real connection, but something caused their relationship to end last year. Cassie can't seem to shake her feelings for The Dream, even as she's with someone else. She sees The Dream in a store and it sets off a wave of memories for her, reminding her of how strongly she felt for him. Cassie is torn between her loyalty to her current partner and her desire for The Dream.


The lyrics paint a picture of someone who is emotionally conflicted and struggling to come to a decision. The use of strong imagery, such as "wrapped up in his arms," "something about us felt so real," and "tormenting me in my serenity," showcases the intensity of Cassie's feelings towards both men. She knows she doesn't want anyone but The Dream, but it's not clear if she's willing to sacrifice her current relationship for him. In the end, the song leaves listeners with an unresolved tension, representing the confusion of love triangles.
