You & Me
Eliza Doolittle Disclosure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Home is where the heart is
And I gave it to you in a paper bag
Even though it’s tarnished
You told me it’s the best you ever had
You got my secret combination
And I don’t be giving that out easily
You can tell that you were brought the same for me
So please don’t let go,
'Cause you know
Exactly what we found
So please don’t let go
My darling
You keep me hooked up underground
It’s gonna be you
And me
It’s gonna be everything you’ve ever dreamed
It’s gonna be who
And me
It’s gonna be everything and everything, we’re meant to be
We’re meant to be
Rolling with the punches
So they won’t get inside our happiness
Love is always hunted
But you’re white rose is soaring through my tear
'Cause you know you give me something
Yeah you give me exactly what I need
Got my blood pumping
You know you always draw more blood, I bleed
So please don’t let go,
'Cause you know
Exactly what we found
So please don’t let go
My darling
You keep me hooked up underground
It’s gonna be you
And me
It’s gonna be everything you’ve ever dreamed
It’s gonna be who
And me
It’s gonna be everything and everything, we’re meant to be
In you’re big house on the hills
Where you keep your dollar bills
And you stashed my heart somewhere in the dark
Keep it safe I know you will
Know you will, know you will, know you will
I know you will
The song "You & Me" by Disclosure featuring Eliza Doolittle is a proclamation of deep love and dedication. The lyrics express the idea of finding a deep connection and holding onto it tightly, no matter what challenges may arise. The opening line "I'll be giving up, oh" implies that the singer is fully surrendered to the relationship, offering themselves completely to their partner.
The unique metaphor of "Home is where the heart is, and I gave it to you in a paper bag, even though it's tarnished" speaks to the idea that love is imperfect and can be damaged, but it is still something to be cherished and protected. The singer then reflects on the fact that they have given their partner their secret combination, something they don't give out easily. This suggests a deep level of trust and the idea that the two of them have a level of understanding and intimacy that is impossible to replicate. The chorus then repeats the idea that the couple is meant to be together, even in tough times, and that they are each other's greatest source of happiness.
The second verse continues with the idea of love as an imperfect thing, with the singer saying they need exactly what their partner gives them, even if it causes pain. The mention of love being "hunted" implies that the relationship is under threat, but the "white rose soaring through my tear" suggests that there is hope and beauty amidst the struggles. The final lines of the song reinforce the idea that the relationship is safe with the partner, and that they are meant to be together always.
