How 'Bout Us
Champaign Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, short and sweet
No sense in draggin' on past our needs
Let's don't keep it hangin' on
If the fire's out, we should both be gone

Some people are made for each other
Some people are made for another for life, how 'bout us
Some people can hold it together
Last through all kinds of weather, tell me can we

Now don't get me wrong
'Cause I'm not tryin' now to end it all
It's just that I have seen
Too many lover's hearts lose their dreams

Some people are made for each other
Some people are made for another for life, how 'bout us
Some people can hold it together
Last through all kinds of weather, tell me, can we

How 'bout us
How 'bout us, baby
How 'bout us
How 'bout us, baby

Some people are made for each other
Some people are made for another for life, how 'bout us




Some people can hold it together
Last through all kinds of weather, tell me, can we

Overall Meaning

The song "How 'bout us" by Champaign is a classic romantic ballad that explores the complexities of relationships. The lyrics suggest the end of a once-loving relationship where both parties realize that the fire between them has burned out. The singer is encouraging his partner to end the relationship before they end up hurting each other more by remaining together. He acknowledges that some people are made for each other, but wonders if they are not among those people, and questions whether they can "hold it together through all kinds of weather."


In the first verse, the singer suggests that there's no point in dragging the relationship beyond its needs. Here, the singer is essentially asking if the relationship is still worth keeping if the romance has died out. The chorus, repeated throughout the song, poses the question of whether the couple is a match made in heaven or whether they are better off apart. The final chorus repeats the question before the song ends.


Overall, the song carries a message of questioning the romance's future and realizing when it's time to call it quits. The song's theme is timeless, and it speaks to people of different ages around the world who have been through the ups and downs of romantic relationships.
