Nobody's Love
Maroon 5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You could make a grown man cry
If you ever said goodbye
Never let you go, I (never let you go, I)
You could make a grown man cry
If you ever left my side
Never let you go, I (never let you go, I)

You're the only hand in my back pocket
If you ever left, I'd go psychotic
Heaven, hear me cryin', cryin' (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Baby, you're the key to my heart, lock it
If you ever left, never unlock it
Lonely like an island, island (ooh, ooh, ooh)

If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's love but yours (but yours)
If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's touch but yours (but yours)

You could make a grown man cry
If you ever said goodbye
Never let you go, I (never let you go, I)
You could make a grown man cry
If you ever left my side
Never let you go, I (never let you go, I)

You're the only hand in my back pocket
If you ever left, I'd go psychotic
Heaven hear me cryin', cryin' (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Hit me like a drug and I can't stop it
Fit me like a glove and I can't knock it
I ain't even lyin, lyin' (ooh, ooh, ooh)





If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's love but yours (nobody's, but yours)
If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's touch but yours (but yours)

If my love ain't your love, then it's nobody's
Only yours, only yours, not just anybody
And if you ever leave, then I'm never gon' want
Nobody, nobody's love
If my love ain't your love, then it's nobody's
Only yours, only yours, not just anybody
And if you ever leave, then I'm never gon' want
Nobody, nobody's love
Nobody's love
Oh, yeah

If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's love but yours (no one, no one)
If my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love
Never gonna need nobody's touch but yours (no, no, no, no)

If my love ain't your love, then it's nobody's
Only yours, only yours, not just anybody
And if you ever leave, then I'm never gon' want
Nobody, nobody's love
If my love ain't your love, then it's nobody's
Only yours, only yours, not just anybody
And if you ever leave, then I'm never gon' want
Nobody, nobody's love

You can make a grown man cry
If you ever said "Goodbye"
Never let you go, oh, oh, oh I (Never let you go, oh, oh, oh I)
You can make a grown man cry
If you ever left my side
Never let you go, oh, oh, oh I (Never let you go, oh, oh, oh I)

Got me on the edge of my back pocket
If you ever left I'd go pyschotic
Heaven hear me cryin', cryin'
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Baby you're the key to my heart lock it
If you ever left never unlock it


[Chorus]
And my love ain't your love
It's never gonna be nobody's love

Never gonna need nobody's love but yours.

@138crash

I can’t describe it, but there’s something about this song that makes me feel so safe - reminds me of listening to Maroon 5 back in the summers of my early teens. Really special.

@ManuPonce

It brings me back to 5-6 years ago studying at University, good old times. I think it have the V vibe...same music. producers

@alwaleedhameed

It's the same energy they're giving out in the V album where it feels like they've got the power to yell off of the rooftops but they're keeping it cool.

@EdwardGFunk

Song reminds me of your mom
