Nobody
Martin Jensen & James Arthur Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dressed up all night, there's no one to impress
Standing in lines 'til I smell like cigarettes
I don't know why my friends are so obsessed
With staying up 'til we're sober, wasting money on regrets
I lost my jacket, about to lose my mind
'Cause it's 5AM and I got work at 9
I'm all alone heading for the exit signs
From the minute that I saw you, I started thinking twice

There's something 'bout you
You steal the room
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you
I'm freaking out just, tryna play it cool
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody
Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you (I don't know nobody, nobody like)
Nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody
Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
I don't know nobody like

Fuck it, I'll stay 'til I'm the last one left
For one chance to say, "You're different than the rest"
We're face to face, tryna get it off my chest, yeah
The lights are going out here, wanna come to mine instead?

There's something 'bout you
You steal the room
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you
I'm freaking out, just tryna play it cool
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody
Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you (I don't know nobody, nobody like)
Nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody
Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
I don't know nobody like

There's something 'bout you
You steal the room
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you
I'm freaking out, I'm tryna play it cool
I can't believe I've never seen nobody, nobody like you

Nobody, nobody like you
Nobody, nobody like you
Nobody, nobody like you
I don't know nobody like you
Nobody, nobody like you
Nobody, nobody like you
Nobody, nobody like you
I don't know nobody like you

Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody
Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you (I don't know nobody, nobody like)
Nobody, no, nobody like you
No, no, nobody




Nobody like, nobody, no, nobody like you
I don't know nobody like

Dressed up all night, there's no one to impress

Waiting in line for bars and clubs all night until I smell like smoke from all the cigarettes around me


I don't know why my friends are so obsessed With staying up 'til we're sober, wasting money on regrets
I don't understand why my friends insist on staying out all night, spending money and regretting it the next day when we're sober

I'm willing to stay until everyone else leaves just to have a chance to tell you that you're special. We're here in person, trying to talk it out, and the party's dying down - want to go somewhere more private?

James Arthur is UNDERRATED for NO REASON. his vocals are absolutely amazing and i don’t know how people can continue to sleep on him

@superman-rk3xv

he's not underrated u f

@makaylagibson8069

superhan yeah he is (atleast in the u.s)😂 he’s only had 2-3 songs on itunes top 100 when his whole albums are amazing. We have people like ariana grande (who’s a great singer) who has albums and songs on the charts for straight months. James is just as good as she is and deserves more recognition. idk how things are in the U.K but over here he’s not that popular except for being the singer of “say you won’t let go”
