You And I
On a Sunday Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where's the harm in voicing a doubt
You'll find me in the lavatory
And where's the harm in talking out loud when I'm on my own
What's so wrong with reading my stars
When I'll be in the lavatory
And what is so wrong with counting the cars when I'm all alone

You're not the only one that I know
And I'm too proud to talk to you anyway
You're not the only one that I know
And I'm far too proud to talk to you any day
So I say I'm in love with the world

And what is so wrong with voicing a doubt when I'm on my own
It's perfectly fine to sleep in a chair
From Monday 'til Saturday
And what is so wrong with talking out loud when I'm all alone

You're not the only one that I know
And I'm too proud to talk to you anyway
You're, you're not the only one that I know
But I'm far too proud to talk to you any day

So they rode out west to the seaside
And they gladly decided to stay
After two hours wandering outside
Ooh the sea air drove them away, yeah

You're not the only one that I know
And I'm too proud to talk to you anyway
You're not the only one that I know
And I'm far too proud to talk to you any day
You're not the only one
But I'm far too proud you're (son)
You're young
But I know, I know, I know, I know
I'm far too proud to talk to you any day




But if you do, don't you know
That I don't mind, no, no, no

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "You And I" by On a Sunday paint a picture of someone who is content to be alone with their thoughts and habits. The first few lines suggest that the singer is comfortable with expressing their doubts and talking to themselves, finding solace in the privacy of a lavatory. They also mention reading their horoscope and counting cars, which could be seen as innocuous activities but perhaps reveal a desire for control and predictability in their life.


The chorus reveals a reluctance to open up to others, specifically someone who is not the only person in the singer's life. They claim to be too proud to speak to this person, even though they may long for connection. This seems to extend to everyone, as the singer claims to be in love with the world instead. However, they also suggest that if this person were to reach out, they wouldn't mind talking.


The final verse incorporates a new character or characters who went west to the seaside but were quickly driven away by the sea air. This could symbolize a failed attempt at change or escape. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, reinforcing the singer's stubbornness and internal battles.


Overall, "You And I" is a introspective song about the struggle to balance one's desires for privacy and independence with the need for human connection.


Line by Line Meaning

Where's the harm in voicing a doubt
Is it really a bad thing to express uncertainty?


You'll find me in the lavatory
You can catch me hiding in the bathroom.


What's so wrong with reading my stars
Why not look to the sky for guidance?


When I'll be in the lavatory
I'll be in the bathroom, don't bother me.


And what is so wrong with counting the cars when I'm all alone
Why criticize my solitary habit of watching traffic pass by?


You're not the only one that I know
I have other acquaintances, you're not special.


And I'm too proud to talk to you anyway
Even if I did want to speak with you, my ego would prevent it.


So I say I'm in love with the world
I have a passion and enthusiasm for life and everything around me.


It's perfectly fine to sleep in a chair
Comfort is subjective, let me rest where I please.


From Monday 'til Saturday
I might not have a consistent sleeping schedule, don't judge me.


So they rode out west to the seaside
They took a trip to the ocean.


And they gladly decided to stay
The place was lovely enough to remain there.


After two hours wandering outside
They went exploring, but not for long.


Ooh the sea air drove them away, yeah
The ocean breeze wasn't as pleasant as they hoped.


You're not the only one
I have other people in my social circle.


But I'm far too proud you're (son)
I may have a child, but my pride prevents me from acknowledging them.


You're young
My child is still inexperienced in the ways of the world.


But I know, I know, I know, I know
I am aware of what's going on, despite my pride.


I'm far too proud to talk to you any day
I don't want to admit my vulnerability to my child, regardless of circumstance.


But if you do, don't you know
If my child decides to talk to me, they shouldn't be surprised.


That I don't mind, no, no, no
Despite my pride, I'll always be willing to listen to my child.

Closed on Sunday, you're my Chick-fil-A
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
Hold the selfies, put the 'Gram away
Get your family, y'all hold hands and pray
When you got daughters, always keep 'em safe
Watch out for vipers, don't let them indoctrinate
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
You're my number one, with the lemonade
Raise our sons, train them in the faith
Through temptations, make sure they're wide awake
Follow Jesus, listen and obey
No more livin' for the culture, we nobody's slave
Stand up for my home
Even if I take this walk alone
I bow down to the King upon the throne
My life is His, I'm no longer my own
I pray to God that He'll strengthen my hand
They will think twice steppin' onto my land
I draw the line, it's written in the sand
Try me and you will see that I ain't playin'
Now, back up off my family, move your hands
I got my weapons in the spirit's land
I, Jezebel don't even stand a chance
Jezebel don't even stand a chance

Closed on Sunday (оригинал Kanye West)
Закрыта по воскресеньям (перевод Иван)

Closed on Sunday, you're my Chick-fil-A
Закрыта по воскресеньям — ты моя «Чик-Фил-Эй», 1
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
Закрыта по воскресеньям — ты моя «Чик-Фил-Эй»,
Hold the selfies, put the 'Gram away
Не делайте селфи, отложите «Инстаграм»,
Get your family, y'all hold hands and pray
Соберитесь всей семьёй, возьмитесь за руки и помолитесь,
When you got daughters, always keep 'em safe
Когда у вас родятся дочери, то берегите их,
Watch out for vipers, don't let them indoctrinate
Остерегайтесь гадюк, не позволяйте им себя переубеждать.
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
Закрыта по воскресеньям — ты моя
«Чик-Фил-Эй»,
You're my number one, with the lemonade
Ты мой номер один с лимонадом. 2
Raise our sons, train them in the faith
Растите сыновей, воспитывайте их в вере,
Through temptations, make sure they're wide awake
Проведите их чрез соблазны, убедитесь, что они знают о них,
Follow Jesus, listen and obey
Следуйте за Иисусом, слушайте и повинуйтесь Ему,
No more livin' for the culture, we nobody's slave
Хватит жить ради культуры, мы не чьи-то рабы.


Stand up for my home
Я встану на защиту дома своего,
Even if I take this walk alone
Даже если я пойду на это один,
I bow down to the King upon the throne
Я склоняюсь пред Царём на престоле,
My life is His, I'm no longer my own
Моя жизнь в Его руках, я больше не принадлежу себе.
I pray to God that He'll strengthen my hand
Я молю Бога, чтобы Он укрепил руку мою,
They will think twice steppin' onto my land
Они дважды подумают, прежде чем ступят на землю мою.
I draw the line, it's written in the sand
Я провожу черту, она начертана на песке,
Try me and you will see that I ain't playin'
Испытай меня, и ты увидишь, что я не шучу.
Now, back up off my family, move your hands
А теперь отойди от моей семьи, руки прочь,
I got my weapons in the spirit's land
Я получил оружие своё в краю духов.
I, Jezebel don't even stand a chance
Иезавель, я не оставлю тебе ни шанса,
Jezebel don't even stand a chance
У Иезавели не останется даже шанса. 3


Chick-fil-A
«Чик-Фил-Эй»!
1 — Chcik-fil-A — американская сеть ресторанов быстрого питания, специализирующаяся на сэндвичах из курицы. Основателем сети был убеждённый член Южной баптистской конвенции Сэмюэл Кэти (1921—2014), поэтому рестораны Chcik-fil-A не работают по воскресеньям, на Рождество и День благодарения.

2 — Номер 1 — комплексный обед сети Chcik-fil-A, состоящий из классического сэндвича с курицей, картофеля фри и напитка.

3 — Иезавель — жена израильского царя Ахава (IX век до н. э.), мать царей Охозии и Иорама, а также иудейской царицы-консорта Гофолии. Находилась в конфликте с пророком Илией из-за своего идолопоклонства, была им проклята на съедение собакам. Имя Иезавели стало нарицательным для порочных женщин — гордых, властолюбивых и тщеславных, богоотступниц
