It is not a matter of being "true" or "not true". I think you meant to ask if the grammar was correct.
You could say either of the following:
"I wish you nothing but the best."
"I wish nothing but the best for you."
"I wish you the best."
The meaning is : The speaker wants only the very best things to happen for the other person.

Isn't it Adele's Someone like you?
This sentence is correct in all respects but the reader might find it a little confusing because the rest of Lyrics are not mentioned here. By and large Lyrics are not reliable regarding grammer and language structure. lyrics composer sometimes have to twist the whole Grammer to get the rythme or meaning they want. this one though is correct!
