Back in December 2017, the Austrian broadcaster ORF announced that Cesár Sampson would represent the country in Lisbon at Eurovision Song Contest 2018.
A few hours ago the video of his Eurovision song “Nobody But You” was released and we can defintely say it’s not a love song like we would have expected. No roses and honey, but real torment and despair.
It’s about doing everything that one can to save a relationship. The video is quite creepy and dark but it comes from the darkest moment of night when you realize it’s your last chance to do something or lose the one you love.
Dear Lord I might have nightmares, but Symphonix and Cesár Sampson created a song that if performed the right way, could give you the chills.
Here is the video of Cesár Sampson performing “Nobody But You”
And here are the lyrics of the song, thanks to songtexte.co
Cesár Sampson – Nobody But You
Lord, I’m gonna get so high tonight
I’m gonna let the floodgates open wide
I’m in open water
It’s what I need
Though I try to get you off my mind
And I get no sleep
I’m in too deep
I can’t let you leave
It wouldn’t be right letting you go running away from love
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
So am I right giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
(Ain’t nobody, ain’t nobody)
Hey
Lord, I’m gonna bring you back tonight, girl
Oh, you’re running circles round my mind
I think your works have been my problem
How can I search for someone new?
What I really want – you by my side
And I get no sleep
I’m in too deep
To let you leave
It wouldn’t be right letting you go running away from love
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
(Ain’t nobody, ain’t nobody)
So am I right giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
(Ain’t nobody, ain’t nobody)
Don’t make me tear my heart out
I’m shaking ’till I fall down
Don’t make me tear my heart out
Don’t make me tear my heart out
I’m shaking ’till I fall down
Don’t make me tear my heart out
It wouldn’t be right letting you go running away
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
So am I right giving my all making you stay tonight?
Ain’t nobody but you I can hold onto
(Ain’t nobody, ain’t nobody)
It wouldn’t be right letting you go running away from love
Ain’t nobody
(Ain’t nobody, ain’t nobody)
Ain’t nobody but you
