No You and Me
Brendan MacFarlane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't stay here
Been kickin us round it's all town for about a year
Now I know for us just sit there is no way back
Been wearing this broken heart like a 50 gallon hat
I gotta keep moving
I can't stand still
I want this world to stop turning
This earth to stop burning
I won't let my soul that I could fit in a ground canyon
I guess somethings just they meant to be
There ain't no looking back because I know
That there ain't no you and me
My friends all tell me that it's about that time
To turn the page and put that girl out of my mind
Yeah it sounds so easy when it's said and done
I can't leave your memory down so I guess I'll have to run
I want this world to stop turning
This earth to stop burning
I won't let my soul that I could fit in a ground canyon
I guess somethings just they meant to be
There ain't no looking back because I know
There ain't no you and me
And it's gonna take all I got
Just pass that city limit
Without turning around
Or losing my love
Or losing my mind
So how far baby?
How far away?
Will I have to count till I can finally say
I really am over you and I'm ok on my own
I guess that's a lonely road that I have to walk alone
There ain't no looking back
There ain't no looking back
There ain't no looking back
Because I know there ain't no you and me
Brendan MacFarlane's song No You and Me tells the story of a man who is trying to move on from a broken relationship. He feels like he has been kicked around by the situation for a year and there is no way back. The man acknowledges that he can't stay still and must keep moving forward to try and push through the pain. His friends are telling him to move on and it sounds easy, but he can't leave the memory of the relationship behind. He wants the world to stop turning and the earth to stop burning, but he understands that some things are just meant to be. The man is aware that there is no looking back because there is no longer a "you and me."
The lyrics reflect the feelings and thoughts of someone who is going through a tough breakup. The man acknowledges that he needs to keep moving and can't stay in the same place any longer. He is conflicted between the desire to move on and the pain of leaving the relationship behind. He wants to be over the person, but it will take time and effort to get there. The song captures the emotions of someone who is struggling to let go and move on.

I gotta keep moving
I cannot stay in one place
I can't stay here
I need to leave this town
Been kickin us round it's all town for about a year
It's been a rough year for us in this town
Now I know for us just sit there is no way back
Sitting here won't fix our problems
Been wearing this broken heart like a 50 gallon hat
I am hurt and it's evident
I gotta keep moving
I need to keep going
I can't stand still
I have to keep making progress
I got to get you leaving or I guess I never will
I have to let you go or I'll be stuck here forever
I want this world to stop turning
I wish time would stop
This earth to stop burning
I wish the world would stop being chaotic
I won't let my soul that I could fit in a ground canyon
I won't let my emotions consume me
I guess somethings just they meant to be
Maybe some things aren't meant to work out
There ain't no looking back because I know
I won't look back
That there ain't no you and me
We can't be together anymore
My friends all tell me that it's about that time
My friends think it's time for me to move on
To turn the page and put that girl out of my mind
I need to forget about you
Yeah it sounds so easy when it's said and done
It's easier said than done
I can't leave your memory down so I guess I'll have to run
I can't forget you, so I need to leave
And it's gonna take all I got
It will take everything I have
Just pass that city limit
Leave this town
Without turning around
Without looking back
Or losing my love
Without losing my feelings for you
Or losing my mind
Without going crazy
So how far baby?
How far do I need to go?
How far away?
How far do I need to be?
Will I have to count till I can finally say
How long until I can finally move on?
I really am over you and I'm ok on my own
When I can finally say I'm okay without you
I guess that's a lonely road that I have to walk alone
I have to do this alone
There ain't no looking back
I won't look back
Because I know there ain't no you and me
Because I know we can't be together anymore
