Never Enough
Nessi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the war to your peace
You're the west to my east
No, I'll never get enough of your love
I shoot high, you go low
You say "yes," I say "no"
No, I'll never get enough of your love (yeah-yeah, yeah)

Hey, love, I'm hooked on you
Hey, love, I could write the book on you
Hey, love, careful what I put on you
'Cause hey, love, only see the good in you
And we flames
Light it up like a four-alarm place
I don't care, we could fight all day
But on God, if you fire her way
First you gon' have to go right through me
I tell 'em all they can read and weep
I don't play games with her, she's my team
Rep that ride 'til we D-I-E
R-I-P

I'm the war to your peace
You're the west to my east
No, I'll never get enough of your love
I shoot high, you go low
You say "yes," I say "no"
No, I'll never get enough of your love

Ich weiß, es ist mit mir nicht immer leicht, ey
Mann, ich gehe hin und wieder viel zu weit, ey
Aber du fängst mich auf, bist da, wenn ich dich brauch'
Gibst uns niemals a-a-auf (uh)
Ich will nicht mehr schlafen, denn mein Traum ist wahr
Auch wenn die Lichter nicht mehr an sind, bist du trotzdem da
Ich bekomme nie genug (oh, oh)
Von dem, was du mit mir tust
Du bist in jedem Song die Melodie
Du bist mein Zuhaus, wir sind ein Team (ah, ah)
Nein, ich bekomme nie genug
No, I can never get enough, enough of your love

I'm the war to your peace
You're the west to my east
No, I'll never get enough of your love
I shoot high, you go low
You say "yes," I say "no"
No, I'll never get enough of your love

You're the feeling, you're the choir
You're the ceilin', you're the fire
The heart that never lets me go cold
You're the smoke my lungs are breathin'
The truth I can't believe in
But I'll keep on coming back for your love

I'm the war to your peace
You're the west to my east
No, I'll never get enough of your love (hey, love)
I shoot high, you go low
You say "yes," I say "no" (hey, love)
No, I'll never get enough of your love
I'm the war to your peace
You're the west to my east
No, I'll never get enough of your love
I shoot high, you go low




You say "yes," I say "no"
No, I'll never get enough of your love

I thought the original could never be topped. I was wrong. She is a priceless precious jewel.

Mori already crushed it years ago, check out :

As stunningly beautiful as Ms Fischer is: Her voice is that of an Angel.
She is Blessed One of a Kind

@bremerjunge482arcor

Ich hab den Film rauf und runter geguckt, sämtliche Cover auf YT gesehen... Aber Helene haut einfach das beste Cover raus, dass es gibt.

@dougkawakami1030

Each singer that has sung "Never Enough" seems to get better and better. I am so impressed with Ms. Helene Fischer's rendition I have to give her a standing ovation here at home. Wow!!

@liberalmonk839

Is Helene's version the original or who sang it first?

@8dowa

Lovely voice, lovely version... but one should hear this one recorded live on a simple radio station ... no fanfare orchestra, no audience to back her up... just her emotional performance and voice color variations, all the while sitting down...
