Nowhere is a record where listeners hear Zayani's apparent struggle with losing a lover. It is obvious that Zayani writes this song from the perspective of still wanting a lost love and even asks "Why does love gotta last this long?..." invoking the emotions of heartbreak she feels from her lost love.

The cool breeze of the afternoon
takes me back,
takes me back to the month of June
When I first fell in love with you
'cause you make all the difference
you were always there to listen
to my every cry
when I talked about those other guys
now I'm asking' why?
I'm steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass (alright)
'Cause I want you bad babe
And I just can't stand what I just can't have
Steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass (uh-huh)
'Cause I want you bad baby
But I just can't stand what I just can't have
(I need you)
And I just can't have you baby
So, slowly I drift into a state of peace
My mind at ease,
I erase what has once brought me to my knees
Contemplate what's wrong
I figure, might as well write this love song
Why does love gotta last this long?
Wish I knew (wish I knew) all along (yeah)
Steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass
'Cause I want you bad babe
And I just can't stand what I just can't have
Steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass
'Cause I want you bad baby
But I just can't stand what I just can't have
And I just can't have you baby
(just can't have you baby)
{Bridge}
Steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass
'Cause I want you bad babe
And I just can't stand what I just can't have
Steady going nowhere
hoping that this love will pass
'Cause I want you bad baby
And I just can't stand what I just can't have
And I just can't have you baby
