Step, step come closer to me
Step, step come make the most of me

Pull me in like the tide
God knows, he knows I tried
To get you out of my head
I'd rather love you instead
Drowning in dreams of you
Wake up but there's no you
Can't get you outta my head
I rather love you instead

I need somebody while you're gone
With a voice like you and a face like you

I need somebody while you're gone
Somebody just like you, just like you
I need somebody while you're gone
Somebody just like you, just like you

Pull me in like the tide
God knows, he knows I tried
To get you out of my head
I'd rather love you instead
Drowning in dreams of you
Wake up but there's no you
Can't get you outta my head
I rather love you instead

I need somebody while you're gone
With a voice like you and a face like you

I need somebody while you're gone
Somebody just like you, just like you

Step, step come closer to me
Step, step come make the most of me
Step, step come closer to me
Step, step come make the most of me
Step, step come closer to me
Step, step come make the most of me
Pull me in like the tide
God knows, he knows I tried




To get you out of my head
I'd rather love you in-

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Camila Cabello's song "Just You and I" tell a story of longing and yearning for someone who is no longer there. The singer is desperately trying to move on from this person, but they find it difficult to let go. The repetition of "step, step come closer to me" and "step, step come make the most of me" suggests a desire for intimacy and connection. The singer is hoping that someone else can fill the void left by the person they miss, someone with similar qualities and characteristics that they find irresistible.


The lines "Pull me in like the tide, God knows, he knows I tried" symbolize the struggle to resist the pull of their feelings. The singer is aware that they have made efforts to forget this person and move on, but they keep getting drawn back to them. The mention of drowning in dreams of this person further emphasizes the intensity of their emotions.


In the chorus, the singer expresses their need for somebody while this person is gone, someone who can replicate the qualities that make them so unforgettable. They are searching for someone who has a voice and a face similar to that of the person they miss.


Overall, the song captures the bittersweet and conflicted feelings of trying to let go of someone while still yearning for them. It showcases the vulnerability and complexities of human emotions.

Spent 24 hours, I need more hours with you
You spent the weekend getting even, ooh
We spent the late nights making things right between us

But now it's all good, babe
Roll that back wood, babe
And play me close

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Til sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Girls like you love fun, and yeah, me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you

I spent last night on the last flight to you
Took a whole day up tryna get way up, ooh
We spent the daylight tryna make things right between us

But now it's all good, babe
Roll that back wood, babe
And play me close

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Til sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Girls like you love fun, and yeah, me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah

Maybe you're thinking it's better if you drive

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Til sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah

Not too long ago, I was dancing for dollars
No, it's really rude if I let you meet my mama
You don't want a girl like me I'm too crazy
For every other girl you meet its fugazy
I'm sure them other girls were nice enough
But you need someone to spice it up
So who you gonna call? Cardi, Cardi
Come and rev it up like Harley, Harley
Why is the best fruit always forbidden?
I'm coming to you now doin' 20 over the limit
The red light, red light stop, stop (skrrt)
I don't play when it comes to my heart
(let's get it though)
I don't really want a white horse and a carriage
I'm thinkin' more of a white Porsches and karats
I need you right here 'cause every time you call
I play with this kitty like you play with your guitar

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Til sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Girls like you love fun, and yeah, me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
