You & I
Billy Raffoul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A story to tell
The only thing on my mind
And it's keeping me up at night, hm
I know you're making magic somewhere
But not by yourself
That might be the reason why
It's keeping me up at night, hm
And it's keeping me up at night
And it's keeping me up
Another night, another stranger's door
Hoping when it opens I'll see you
You
You're more than just a notch in my belt
A story to tell
The only thing on my mind
It's obvious I'm not doing well
Do you see these eyes, when have you known me to cry?
I'm just sitting here remembering how your lips taste
And it's keeping me up at night
And it's keeping me up
Another night, another stranger's door
Hoping when it opens I'll see you
You
Ooh, ooh, yeah
Ha, oh, we
Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
To that night
To that stranger's door
Not knowing when it opened I'd see you (ho oh)
You
That I'd see you
Hey, hey
Oh, oh
See you
Baby
Baby
Oh, oh
See you
I'd see you
I'd see you

You're more than just a notch in my belt
You're not just another conquest for me to brag about
A story to tell
You're someone I want to remember and cherish
The only thing on my mind
You're constantly occupying my thoughts
And it's keeping me up at night, hm
You're causing me to lose sleep at night
I know you're making magic somewhere
You have something special about you that's captivating
But not by yourself
You're not alone, you have influences and people supporting you
That might be the reason why
Maybe that's why I can't get you out of my head
I can smell you on the pillow where you used to lay
Your memory is so strong that I can still sense your presence
And it's keeping me up at night
These thoughts of you are causing me to lose sleep
Another night, another stranger's door
I'm searching for you in all the wrong places
Hoping when it opens I'll see you
I'm clinging to the hope that I'll find you again
You
You're the one I'm searching for
It's obvious I'm not doing well
I'm struggling without you
Do you see these eyes, when have you known me to cry?
I'm not one to show vulnerability, but you've affected me in a way that's making me emotional
I'm just sitting here remembering how your lips tasted
I'm consumed by memories of our time together
Wishing I could go back
I regret letting you go and wish I could turn back time
To that night
To the night we were together
To that stranger's door
To the place where we met
Not knowing when it opened I'd see you (ho oh)
I had no idea that by going through that door, I would find someone who would mean so much to me
Baby
A term of endearment for the one I miss
