Nothing But You
Jam-Tako Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seams
Of other one's dreams, is over my head
Do nothing till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
When we're apart the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please, do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
When we're apart the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But don't do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will
In Jam-Tako's song Nothing but You, the lyrics speak to the importance of communication in a relationship. The singer urges their partner not to listen to rumors or gossip, but to wait and hear from them directly before making any judgments. The lines "Do nothing till you hear from me" and "please, do nothing till you hear it from me" reinforce this idea, that the only source of truth about the relationship should be from the individuals involved.
The lyrics also address the temptation and potential for infidelity, with the singer admitting to being seen with someone else but insisting that it doesn't mean they are untrue to their partner. The line "Some kiss may cloud my memory, and other arms may hold a thrill" acknowledges the lure of physical attraction, but ultimately the singer declares their loyalty and love for their partner with the line "When we're apart the words in my heart reveal how I feel about you."
Overall, the song is a plea for trust and honesty between partners, and a reminder that communication is key in any healthy relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
Do nothing till you hear from me
Wait and do not act until I communicate with you
Pay no attention to what's said
Ignore rumors or gossip
Why people tear the seams of other one's dreams, is over my head
I cannot explain why people criticize or sabotage others' aspirations
At least consider our romance
Think about the relationship we have
If you should take the word of others you've heard, I haven't a chance
If you listen to others' opinions about me, we cannot be together
True, I've been seen with someone new
It is true that I have been seen with another person
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
Does that mean that I have been disloyal to you?
When we're apart the words in my heart reveal how I feel about you
When we are not together, my feelings for you are expressed through my thoughts and emotions
Some kiss may cloud my memory
A kiss from someone else may momentarily affect my recollection
And other arms may hold a thrill
Other people's embrace might seem exciting in the moment
But please, do nothing till you hear it from me
Please wait for me to tell you the truth
And you never will
You will never hear anything about me from someone else
But don't do nothing till you hear it from me
But please wait for my explanation before making any judgements
And you never will
And you will never hear anything from someone else about me
