You & Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I didn't mean to hurt you
So why’d I let you walk out the door?
You say that you don't know me
You don't know who I am anymore
But if you knew the truth, then
Then you wouldn’t feel insecure
'Cause if I didn't have you
I wouldn't have nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish you could see yourself through my eyes
I always forget that you can't read my mind

[Chorus]
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean
No one could fall for you quite like me
No one could get me so perfectly
You don't even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You’re all that I need
’Cause I want you and me, you and me

[Verse 2]
I know one day we'll look back
Stories on the tip of our tongues
A library full of pages
Remembering when we fell in love
All of the broken hearts and the stupid mistakes
Have got us to where we are, it was worth all the pain
Yeah, we’ll look back
We'll look back and laugh
[Chorus]
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean
No one could fall for you quite like me
No one could get me so perfectly
You don’t even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You're all that I need

[Bridge]
'Cause I want you, you, you
Me, me, me, together
Oh, I want you, you, you
Me, me, me, forever (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me

[Chorus]
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean (Oh-oh-oh)
No one could fall for you quite like me (Oh-oh-oh)
No one could get me so perfectly (Oh-oh-oh)
You don't even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You're all that I need
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I want you, you, you
And me, me, me, together (You and me, you and me)
Oh, I want you, you, you
And me, me, me, forever (You and me, you and me)

[Outro]
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did James TW say about "You & Me"?
Genius Answer

You & Me was a song that kind of came out of nowhere.

I sat down at the piano in my flat and I started playing these kind of singer-songwriter chords…and I just started doing some gibberish lines about nothing and I ended up kind of singing “As long as I got you and me, moving through this world as a two-man team”, and that’s all I came up with.

I came into a songwriting session with these two new guys and…one of them told me he had an idea the day before to write a song called You & Me.

This man in the session…had the idea to have this part that goes “You, you you. Me, me, me. Together.”

It felt like we were meant to write the song that day.

We ended up writing this lovely song just about having a rock – a person in your life that you really couldn’t imagine not being in it.

I love that it has tempo but it’s still kind of a ballad.
