Don't Look Any Further
Dennis Edwards & Siedah Garrett Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someone to count on in a world ever changin'.
Here I am, stop where you standin'.
What you need is a lover, someone to take over.
Oh baby don't look any further.

Strange when you think of the chances
that we've both been in a state of mind.
Too cool to be careless. Looking for the right thing.
Oh baby don't look any further.

Tonight (tonight) we're gonna taste a little paradise.
Rockin' all night long. Rockin' all night long.
Daylight (daylight) I'll still be looking in your heavenly eyes.

Oh we rocked on and on and on.

Day o umba day o mambu ji ay o.
Don't look any further. Don't you look no furhter.
Day o umba day o na jam bay um bay o.
Don't look any further.

Someone to count on (someone to count on) in a world ever changin'.
Here I am, stop where you standin'.
What you need is a lover (you need a lover)
to love you all over (love you all over).
Oh baby don't look any further (further).

Tonight (tonight) we're gonna taste a little paradise.
Rock you night long. Rock me all night long.
Daylight (daylight) I'll still be looking in your heavenly eyes.

We'll go on and on and on.

Day o umba day o mambu ji ay o.
Don't look any further. Don't you look no furhter.
Day o umba day o na jam bay um bay o.
Don't look any further.

Day o umba day o mambu ji ay o.
Don't look any further. Don't you look no furhter.
Day o umba day o na jam bay um bay o.
Don't look any further.

Tonight (tonight) we're gonna taste a little paradise.
Rock you night long. Rock me all night long.
Daylight (daylight) I'll still be looking in your heavenly eyes.

We'll go on and on and on.

Day o umba day o mambu ji ay o.
Don't look any further. Don't you look no furhter.




Day o umba day o na jam bay um bay 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 !
