Nobody but you
Perry Como Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When there's trouble on my mind
I'm feelin' low
I long to find some peaceful place to go
Who gives me sympathy?
Who's always good to me?
Nobody but you!

When this world has got me down
I need a friend
It seems my trials an' cares will never end
Who's got the kind of love
That I need plenty of?
Nobody but you!

You are the one, who won't forsake me
Though my dreams may fade an' fall apart
Nobody but you, brings consolation
To warm my heart!

All you have to do is smile
The sun will shine!
Somehow I know that things will turn out fine
Who can I guarantee, will always stand by me,
Nobody but you!

(All you have to do is smile...)
The sun will shine!
Somehow I know that things will turn out fine




Who can I guarantee, will always stand by me,
Nobody but you!
