Nobody but You
Sonder Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our conversations got me feelin' I'm the fool
Like I should have listened when they said that you
Would treat me like he did, oh, yeah
Said I did it all
Situation makes me feel I'm not a man at all
Swore I'd be there, swore that I'd catch your fall
I guess I couldn't handle it, no
And I know you probably thinkin' I ain't worth shit
But I never want anyone to bring you any harm
And I'd take it all back just to have you in my arms
And I know for a fact who you are ain't who we are
We are
Don't think you cared about me (oh, girl, I care about you)
But you don't care 'bout nobody (nobody but you)
Don't think you cared about me (oh, girl, I care about you)
But you don't care 'bout nobody (nobody but you)
I wish I had the time to run to you, not ruin your life
I'd never wrong you twice, I wanna make things right
And maybe you'll take me
Hope you don't hate me
Don't want to fight anymore
Daytimes are silent as hell
I wish that I could ignore all that you said
If you can't find the time or space
Then I don't have the words to say
I wonder, is the only peace we'll find
Gonna be when you tell me goodbye?
And I know you probably thinkin' I ain't worth shit
But I never want anyone to bring you any harm
And I'd take it all back just to have you in my arms
And I know for a fact who you are ain't who we are
We are
Don't think you cared about me (oh, girl, I care about you)
But you don't care 'bout nobody (nobody but you)
Don't think you cared about me (oh, girl, I care about you)
But you don't care 'bout nobody (nobody but you)
The lyrics of Sonder's song "Nobody But You" depict a complicated relationship between two people who are in love but are struggling to make it work. The first verse portrays the singer's guilt and regret for not listening to those who warned him about his partner's treatment. He blames himself for his inadequacy in handling their situation, and he feels weak and powerless. Despite this, he expresses his desire to make things right and begs for forgiveness, although he's uncertain if his partner still cares about him.
In the chorus, the singer acknowledges his partner's self-centeredness and how she doesn't care about anyone but herself. At the same time, he still cares about her deeply and can't help but want to fix their relationship. He's torn between his unwillingness to fight and his overwhelming desire to be with her, leading to a feeling of hopelessness.
The second verse highlights the singer's wish to rectify his mistakes and earn his partner's trust again. He's willing to do whatever it takes to make her happy, but he's also aware that she may never forgive him. He's stuck in a state of limbo, unsure whether to give up on the relationship or keep trying. Despite his partner's selfishness, he remains devoted to her.
Overall, the lyrics of the song depict a complex story of love, sacrifice, and pain. It portrays the struggles that come with trying to make a relationship work with someone who is selfish and unappreciative. The singer's dilemma is relatable, as many people go through similar situations in real life.

The silence during the day feels like torture to me. I wish I could forget the hurtful things you said to me, but I can't. If you can't find any room in your heart for me, then I don't know what else to say. I wonder if our only chance at peace is if we end our relationship.
