Nobody But You
Heartbreak Harmony: Tony Holiday's Nobody But You
Lyrics
Hmmm love and hold me light
Expressing a desire for love and a gentle touch
Gone and left me baby
Acknowledging that the partner has departed
Left me here to die
Feeling abandoned and left in a state of despair
But I love you
Despite the abandonment, the speaker still loves the partner
yes I love pretty girl
Reiterating love for the partner, emphasizing their attractiveness
Nobody but you
Affirming exclusive love, addressing the partner directly
You told me to my face
Recalling a promise from the partner about not leaving
You’d never leave me alone
Expressing disappointment as the partner seems to have broken the promise
now darlin you done me wrong
Acknowledging the partner's betrayal
But I love you
Despite the betrayal, the speaker still loves the partner
Oh I love you pretty girl
Reaffirming love for the partner, using an endearing term
Nobody but you
Emphasizing exclusive love and addressing the partner again
I love you woman
Expressing love for the woman, despite the emotional pain
But you breakin my heart
Highlighting the partner's actions causing emotional distress
You love me fine
Acknowledging that the partner once loved the speaker deeply
Tore me all apart
Describing the emotional impact of the partner's actions
I love you you know I love you pretty girl
Reiterating love for the partner despite the heartbreak
Nobody but you
Emphasizing exclusive love, repeating the sentiment
Nobody but you
Repeating the exclusive love declaration for emphasis
Nobody but you
Further reinforcing the message of exclusive love
Nobody but you
Final repetition of the exclusive love declaration
