Nobody But You
Cesar Sampson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna let the floodgates open wide
I'm in open water
It's what I need
Though I try to get you off my mind
And I get no sleep
I'm in too deep
It wouldn't be right letting you go running away from love
Ain't nobody but you I can hold onto
So am I right giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain't nobody but you (ain't nobody)
I can hold onto (ain't nobody)
Hey
Lord, I'm gonna bring you back tonight
Oh you're running circles round my mind
After your words have been my Bible
How could I search for someone new?
When I really want you by my side
And I get no sleep
I'm in too deep
To let you leave
It wouldn't be right letting you go running away from love
Ain't nobody but you (ain't nobody)
I can hold onto (ain't nobody)
So am I wrong giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain't nobody but you (ain't nobody)
I can hold onto (ain't nobody)
Don't make me tear my heart out
I'm shaking 'til I fall down
Don't make me tear my heart out
Don't make me tear my heart out
I'm shaking 'til I fall down
Don't make me tear my heart out
It wouldn't be right letting you go running away
Ain't nobody but you I can hold onto
So am I wrong giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain't nobody but you (ain't nobody)
I can hold onto (ain't nobody)
It wouldn't be right letting you go running away from love
Ain't nobody but you (ain't nobody)
I can hold onto (ain't nobody)
Ain't nobody but you

To me this was the best Eurovision by far...
Had at least 5 major songs that I though would win in my vote..
Cesar Sampson singing this.
Higher ground.
Bones.
And the catchy window maid song and 2 2 guys In it..
This was just after my mum past away and this was a show that I felt so uplifted and felt like my mum was with us.
