Nobody But You
Girls Aloud Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I need your love, I'll take it all
You are so damn divine, I'd like to
Peel back your love and climb inside
The rain goes into hiding
When I see you in the crowd
Cause I, I-I-I-I, I don't need nobody but you
I cried, cried all night when I've got nothing to prove
All the time
I care about love boy, I care about you
But I couldn't think of anything better I'd rather do
I care about something, that only I feel
But I couldn't think of anything better I'd rather steel
I feel it for real
You slide into my head
My so called life gets kind of gray
My soul ain't yours to steel
But, each time we roll, you've got the wheel
My eyes they sparkle
Even when you're not around
[Repeat: x2]
Cause I, I-I-I-I, I don't need nobody but you
Here now yeah
I cried, cried all night when I've got nothing to prove
All the time
I care about love boy, I care about you
But I couldn't think of anything better I'd rather do
I care about something, that only I feel
But I couldn't think of anything better I'd rather steel
I feel it for real

The lyrics suggest that the love between the two is intense and that the person feels complete only when they are with this significant other. The lyrics focus on the theme of the exclusivity of love, with the person stating that they don't need anyone else but the one they love.
The opening lines, "You are so beautiful, yeah, I need your love, I'll take it all, You are so damn divine, I'd like to peel back your love and climb inside" depict the irresistible nature of the person the singer is in love with. The person feels a strong attraction towards their lover, and they want to be enveloped by their love. The line, "My soul ain't yours to steel, but each time we roll, you've got the wheel" talks about gaining strength from their love but also acknowledges the loss of individuality in the relationship.
