Bet you think that I don't love you, baby
Bet you think that I...
I don't care
But I wanna tell you
Well, you got something
And I'm loving you with all my heart
I don't ever wanna part
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
Don't you know that you can call on me, baby
(You can call on me)
All you gotta do is say you will
(All you gotta do)
'Cause I'm ready just to love you
And put an end to all your doubts
I know we can work it out
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
Man, I love you
So, put an end to your fantasy,
Or you just might...
You just might blow it all
Get yourself together
And baby, when you do
You're gonna see that I'll be true to you
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you

This young lady can sing any type of music what a blessing from God.
Joss makes every song she sings like she was the original singer.
That’s something not easy to do at all, but with Joss she makes it seem so easy
but it’s no easy at all..She has a gift from above

Been many years since first hearing this soulful spirit. I'm falling in love with Joss Stone all over again in 2018. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.

Something amazing, a bit of super soul I have never heard in Joss' voice at the 4:28-4:34 point! This is my new favorite! You can't get this in a studio recording..

I️ rarely use the word “fan” but I’m truly a fan of Ms Stone

She’s passionate and loud and quiet.

The difference between Joss Stone and other singers is that most of the singers actually make a good studio recording and when hear them in a live session they are not even a half as good and little Joss is like 1000 times better in live performance then on her studio recordings which are also amazing. Beside of all of that she is really amazing and beautiful girl.
