Me And You
Carolina Liar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Christmas day you pretended like you didn't notice
Having drinks with what's-his-name?
New Year's Eve you pulled me away when the ball dropped
I turned my back but from that day...
It was me and you
Me and you
Baby ever since you crossed that room and asked me out
I know we knew it's me and you
Verse 2:
Summertime two rows away at a home game
Was that smile meant for me?
And the crowd goes wild you turn and stare
I break inside just like that night
It's so obvious what we should do
Chorus:
'Cause it's me and you
Always me and you
Baby ever since you crossed that room and asked me out
I know we knew it's me and you
Bridge:
Anytime we let it show
We been fighting it off for so long
Baby we already know
Tell me why are we still holding off?
Why are we still holding off?
Chorus:
'Cause it's me and you
Always me and you
Baby ever since you crossed that room and asked me out
I know we knew it's me and you
Me and you
Baby ever since you crossed that room and asked me out
I know we knew it's me and you
Me and you
"Me and You" by Carolina Liar is a song that tells the story of two people who have known each other for a long time but have been holding back their feelings for each other. The lyrics take us through various moments in their lives, starting from Christmas day when the male protagonist notices the female protagonist ignoring him. The song describes how they have been fighting off their feelings for each other even though it is obvious that they should be together.
The first verse talks about the male protagonist feeling ignored by the female protagonist on Christmas day. This could be interpreted as her playing hard to get or not being interested in him. On New Year's Eve, however, she pulls him away which shows that she does have feelings for him. The chorus talks about how the two of them have a connection and ever since they started dating, they knew it was going to be "me and you."
The second verse describes a moment during a summertime home game when the female protagonist is smiling at the male protagonist. He questions whether the smile is meant for him and realizes that it is so obvious that they should be together. The bridge talks about how they have been holding off their feelings for each other and how they need to stop fighting them. The repetition of "me and you" in the chorus emphasizes the connection between the two characters and how they are meant to be together.
