You And I
J. Lourenzo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories

Hey, window pane
Do you remember
How sweet it used to be
When we was together
Everything was so grand
Now that we've parted
There's just one sound
That I just can't stand

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
'Cause he's not here with me

Alone with the pillow
Where his head used to lay
I know you've got
Some sweet memories
But like the window
You ain't got nothing to say

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Just keeps on haunting me





Hey, rain
Get off my window
