Just You And Me Baby
The Spinners feat. Dionne Warwick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come, my love
Take my sunshine
Take my happiness
Let's run through this world
We won't care
And there won't be any company
We'll share this song alone
It's just you and me baby
We're feeling so free
Blowin' ours minds
We haven't much time
And each hour seems like a second
That I held you
Baby, so true

Here we are
In a world they said
We'd never see
We're here
Just you and me
Making love
Being what we said
We'd always be together
Baby just you and me

It's just you and me baby
We're feeling so free
Blowin' ours minds
We haven't much time
And each hour seems like a second
That I held you
Baby, so true

It's just you and me baby
We're feeling so free
Blowin' ours minds
We haven't much time
And each hour seems like a second
That I held you
Baby, so true





Repeat last verse and fade.

There's something about Philly soul that is just timeless. Brilliant songwriting performed brilliantly. All these decades later, and I still never tire of it.

Sat Urno

Because back then there were real musicians playing real instruments. Pure talent, real professionals. Today's music is soulless, hollow.

Matthew Schwartz

She has such a classic, recognizable voice. A true legend.

Ines Moore

I’m going to be eighty this year and I still listen to Dionne Warwick and the Spinners with the same enthusiasm as when I was 25 and that will never change!!!❤

TJ Wash

Dionne Warwick was in a class by herself. One of the greatest vocalists and interpreters of song of her generation.

Voice of an angel

Quite well-stated, good sir.

JJ Cevering

What a great song!!! I hope & pray she found a way to avoid the dirty side of show business. I feel for her and Diana Ross, always so skinny. Who knows who else.. all of them. Pray for our music pioneer's paving the roads early on, when nobody talked about "me too". Very few got around "the big secret" unharmed.
May Gods love and forgiveness heal all our hurts and hearts. We need you back LORD, we love you Father ABBA. Thank you for everything good that we can recall when we hear our favorite songs again. 💗💗 help us remember who we are and show courage. Stand up and speak up. Remove evil and may God have mercy on those who need it most in His Good Will. Help us redeem the time we lived in denial and Bless ALL that are helping now to end "modern Human Tra- slavery" in all it's ugly forms. Amen

THIS JAM IS TIMELESS. IT STILL SOUNDS FRESH AND I CRY

Best time of my life.
