Me and You
G.W. Turner Lyrics

A beautiful collection
The singer has accumulated pieces of multiple experiences shared with their loved one

Pieces of me and youholding on
Memories and emotions of the singer and their loved one remain strong and persistent despite time passing

Holding on
The singer is determined to preserve and cherish the memories and love shared with their partner

I know you said you'd be there
The artist recalls a promise their loved one made to always be present

I know you said you'd try
The artist remembers their loved one's commitment to putting in effort for their relationship

And I kept on looking for you
Despite their loved one's absence, the singer remained hopeful and searched for them

I sat there wondering why
The singer questioned the reasons behind their loved one's betrayal or departure

I got the party started
The artist did not let their pain and disappointment prevent them from having fun and enjoying life

We were having a good time
The artist and those around them were enjoying the moment and having positive experiences

Somebody asked about you
Another person inquired about the loved one who was not present

I gave my usual reply
The singer responded in a typical or rehearsed manner to the question, likely concealing their true feelings

Such a painful remind
The inquiry was a reminder of the artist's hurt and disappointment in their loved one

That I'm collecting my fare share of broken promises
The singer has experienced multiple instances where their loved one has made and broken promises

More than my share of all these faded dreams
The singer has had more than their fair share of unrealized hopes and dreams

Picture me there among your broken promises
The singer imagines themselves in their loved one's broken promises, wishing they could have been fulfilled

You said we'd meet in Paris
The loved one promised to meet the artist in Paris, a symbol of romance and adventure

New York when gold leaves fall
The loved one promised to meet the artist in New York during a time of natural beauty

You painted all the pictures
The loved one created vivid imagery and promises for their future together

Can't help but collect them all
The singer cannot help but remember and hold onto these promises and memories, even if they were not fulfilled

It's not about where we go
The artist recognizes that the destination is not as important as the love shared in the journey

It's not about here or there
Physical location and distance is not the main focus of the relationship

Cause I remember a time when you would meet me anywhere
The artist recalls a time when their loved one was always present, regardless of location or circumstance

And the love we used to share
The singer misses the love and connection they once had with their loved one

But I'm collecting...
The artist is still holding onto memories and emotions, even if their loved one is no longer in their life

It's not about where you are
The singer emphasizes that physical location is not as important as being present in the relationship

It's not about the near or far
Closeness or distance is not the main factor in maintaining love and connection

Just need to know that you're here with me
The most important thing for the singer is to know that their loved one is present and committed to the relationship

And we'll be holding on for eternity
The artist is determined to hold onto their love and memories forever, regardless of their current circumstances

A beautiful, so beautiful collection of
Despite the pain and disappointment, the artist still values the memories and experiences shared with their loved one

Pieces of me and youholding on
The emotional ties and memories shared with their loved one are still strong, and the singer is holding onto them

Pieces of me and you my loveholding on
The singer emphasizes that it is their love that keeps them holding onto these memories, and that their love is still present
