Nobody but You
The walters Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I'm in trouble
And I need someone
Who knows my secret heart.
There's nowhere to run, baby
But straight to your arms
And you hold me in the dark.
Something inside me starts to move
And I know I can put my faith in you.

[Chorus]
Nobody but you. Nobody but you.
Nobody but you. Nobody but you.

It's one of those lonely days
In this lonely world
The signs are so hard to see.
Just show me the way now
To get back to you girl
That's where I need to be.
Something inside me starts to move
And I know I can put my faith in you.

[Chorus]

Somethin' inside me starts to move
And I know I can put my faith in you.

[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Walters' song Nobody But You convey a sense of vulnerability and reliance on a trusted confidant for comfort and support during times of trouble. The singer acknowledges that they have nowhere else to turn but to the person they trust most, who knows their deepest thoughts and emotions. When they are feeling lost and unsure of their path, this person is the only one who can guide them back to where they need to be. The repeated refrain of "nobody but you" emphasizes the singer's belief in the strength of this relationship and their feeling that no one else can replace the comfort and security they find in their confidant's care.

The lyrics also touch on a broader sense of loneliness and uncertainty in the world, as the singer acknowledges the difficulty of navigating life's challenges and finding direction. However, by placing their trust in this one person, they find a sense of connection and purpose. The repeating chorus of "nobody but you" reinforces this idea of the singer's emotional dependence on this person, and the recognition that their bond is unbreakable.

When I'm in trouble
When I'm facing problems in life

And I need someone
And I need someone's support

Who knows my secret heart.
Who knows my deepest feelings and emotions

There's nowhere to run, baby
There's no escape, my dear

Only you can give me the strength I seek

It's one of those days where I feel alone

In a world where loneliness prevails

The signs are so hard to see.
The signs of hope are hard to come by

Just show me the way now
Please guide me now

To get back to you girl
To return to your loving arms, my love
