Don't Look Any Further
Dennis Edwards Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoa, oh, well, well, well
Well, well, oh, hmm

Someone to count on in a world of change
Here I am, stop where you're standin'
What you need is a lover, a man to take over
Oh girl, don't look any further
Strange, when you think of the chances
That we'd both be in a state of mind
Too cool to be careless, lookin' for the right thing
Oh baby, don't look any further

Tonight, tonight, we're gonna taste a little, paradise
Rock it all night long, baby all night long
Daylight, daylight
I'll still be lookin' in your ebony eyes
And we'll go on and on, and on

Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don't look any further
Don't you look no further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don't look any further

Someone to count on in a world of changin'
Here I am, stop where you're standin'
What you need is a lover, you need a lover
To love you all over, love me all over

Oh baby, don't you look any further, further
Don't look any further
Don't look any further

Tonight, tonight, we're gonna taste a little, paradise
Rock you all night long, rock you all night long
Daylight, daylight
I'll still be lookin' in your ebony eyes
And we'll go on and on, and on

Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, say it
Don't look any further
Don't you look no further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don't look any further, don't you ever look

Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don't look any further, further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don't look any further, further





Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don't look any further

The whole song is amazing !
The bass !
The crispy snare sound and highhats sounds

The duo male/female singing,

The lyrics plus the day o umba dayo etc

The guitar here and there,

The bits and pieces all over

They dont have capability to make music anywhere near this quality in todays world !
