Nobody but You
Liv Dawson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me what you
Tell me what you like
I'll be down for you
Every single night
Do anything for you
I'd turn the dark into light
So tell me what you
So tell me what you like

I don't know how you feel
All I know is I'm sure that I want you
And I hope that you want me that same
Cos I know that I need you

Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
Don't know what you're waiting for
I can't keep this in no more
Tell me are you feeling it too
Ooooh there ain't nobody but you

I know that it's, know that it's getting late
My mind is over it
No point in thinking straight
I can't runaway from this love we creating
There's no place I'd rather be intoxicated
I think it's time, time I catch a break

I don't know how you feel
All I know is i'm sure that I want you
And I hope that you want me that same
Cos I know that I need you

Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
Don't know what you're waiting for
I can't keep this in no more
Tell me are you feeling it too
Ooooh there ain't nobody but you

Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
There ain't nobody but you
Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
There ain't nobody but you
Don't know what you're waiting for
I can't keep this in no more
Tell are you feeling it too




Ooooh there ain't nobody but you
There ain't nobody but you
