Nobody But You
Ruby Turner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I could make it
Lord no-one ever gave me anything,
All they did was take it.
No-one, no-one, ever held my hand
When I needed them to
Oh no, nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody
Nobody but you
No-one ever looked inside,
At whats happening around me
I tell you, every time I felt lost
No-one ever found me
No-one, no-one ever cried for me,
When my dreams fell through
Oh no, no, nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody
Nobody but you
No-one ever said (lean on me)
No-one ever told me (you've got a friend)
No, nobody said, I'll be your shelter (ooh)
When there's troubled waters,
I'm gonna be there (be there)
Oh be there (be there) oh 'til the end
No no no, nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody
Nobody but you
The lyrics to Ruby Turner's song Nobody But You explore the theme of loneliness and being let down by those who were supposed to support and care for you. The singer expresses her gratitude to the one person who has always been there for her, the only one who has truly cared and offered a helping hand. The lyrics express the isolation and alienation felt by the singer due to the lack of support and care from those around her. No one seemed to believe in her or in her dreams, and she felt abandoned and alone.
The chorus "nobody but you" is a testament to the importance of having someone who believes in you and supports you, a person who remains by your side through thick and thin. It serves as a reminder that we all need that special someone who offers us a sense of security and unconditional love. The repetitive nature of the chorus emphasizes the importance of this person and how they play a central role in the singer's life.
