I’m nobody without you,
Just a shell,
I’m like a flower with no smell,
It’s a living hell.
Yeah, I’m nobody without you,
Just a frame,
I’m like a fire with no flame,
I’m living in shame.

‘Cause you’re my sunshine
To keep me warm,
You’re my shelter and my hideout
In rainy days and storm.
You’re my laugh-line when I am blue,
You put balm into my wounds,
I’m nobody without you…
Yeah, I’m nobody without you…

Yeah, I’m nobody without you,
Just a freak,
I’m like a bucket where it leak.
Oh boy, I am weak.
Yeah, I’m nobody without you,
Just a fool,
I’m like a jointer with no tool…
Oh, life isn’t cool…

‘Cause you’re my sunshine
To keep me warm,
You’re my shelter and my hideout
In rainy days and storm.
You’re my laugh-line, make me feel new.
You give the only love I know,
I’m nobody without you.
Yes, I’m nobody without you…
Yeah, I’m nobody without you…
Just nobody without you.

Without your loving,
Without you I am weak.
Without your hugging I’m nothing but a freak.
Without you, baby,
Without you I cannot sing.
Without you, darling, I’m like a bird who lost its wings,
I’m not a thing.

‘Cause you’re my sunshine
To keep me warm,
You’re my shelter and my hideout
In rainy days and storm.
You’re my laugh-line, a dream come true,
You’re the only truth I know,
I’m nobody without you.
Yes, I’m nobody without you…
Yeah, I’m nobody without you…
Just nobody without you…

    A so good simple song with a lot of images. A good side project of Sarcevic different of Millencolin but the strengh in the voice is still here. Where are the others songs? :)

    This song has essentially been heard before. What makes better than average is the clever use of words. Can't wait til I get this guys album!

    Well, the whole album is just fucking great but this is probably one of my favourites. It's so light but has alot of meaning. Reminds me of my boyfriend. How lame :]

    I like Millencolin/ Nikola, but seriously, these are some of the worst lyrics ive ever heard: Yeah, I’m nobody without you, Just a fool, I’m like a jointer with no tool… Oh, life isn’t cool… with most of his songs, his god-awful english is kinda charming, but this is just awkward.

    I agree with Riley. This album is a let down for me thinking I'd perhaps come across acoustic songs similar to Millencolin. I now feel sorry for Nikola, the lyrics in this album are terrible. This song being one that stands out in particular, reverbarates a sense of need, desperation and it's sad to see a person's self-esteem purely contingent on the actions, reactions, or emotional responses of other people. Most people learn that neediness is a turn off in relationships when they are teenagers don't they??? It's nice to see his second solo album having made some progression since this one.

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.

Alma Matters
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support. "Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
