Nobody but You
Elkie Brooks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nobody but you can make me do the things I'm gonna do
Nobody but you can make me do the things I'm gonna do
Change my way of living, start doing right
Be true to the promises I make in the night
No more will I wander, no more will I roam
From now on, baby I'm yours and yours alone

Nobody but you can make me do the things I'm gonna do
Nobody but you can make me do the things I'm gonna do
Loved you like I never, ever loved before
Give you all the things of that you can be sure
I aim to make you happy, aim to satisfy
I aim to please you 'till the day I die

No, no, no, no, no nobody can make me do the things I'm gonna do
No, no, no, no, no nobody can make me do the things I'm gonna do
I'll kiss you each time you leave, I'll kiss you each time you leave
Baby, I'm dedicated to make your life complete
I'll prove how much I love you a thousand times a day
Oh baby, believe me when I say

No, no, no nobody can make me do the things I'm gonna do
No, no, no nobody can make me do the things I'm gonna do
Change my way of living, start doing right
Be true to the promises I make in the night
No more will I wander, no more will I roam
From now on, baby I'm yours and yours alone

No, no, no, no, no nobody




No, no, no, no, no nobody
But you
