  • Here, Dylan Scott sings of loving his woman better than anyone else can.

    I know the taste of your lips, every inch of your skin
    The little things that turn you on
    I know that look in your eyes when they look back at mine
    Saying baby, take me home
    Girl, nobody, nobody, nobody gonna love you like I do


    Dylan Scott wrote the song about his wife Blair, the same girl who inspired his breakthrough hit "My Girl."

    "Basically, I looked at Blair and I told her one day," he explained to ABC Audio, "I was like, 'You know what? Nobody's ever gonna love you the way I'm gonna love you.' I was trying to get brownie points, you know?"

    "But it worked," Scott added, "And then I went and wrote it."
  • Scott penned the song with songwriter Dallas Wilson (Mitchell Tenpenny's "Somebody Ain't You") and songwriter-producer and frequent collaborator Matt Alderman in July 2018. They wrote the tune in a bus at Allegany, New York, where Scott was headlining a Wounded Warriors benefit at Fireman's Park.

    Wilson arrived with a melody that had popped into his head the previous day, and then the three came up with a story that fit the song's feel. "I wanted to write a super-simple song with a good groove," recalled Scott to Billboard. "That's about as simple as you can get right there."
