Me and You
Tiff Randol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the leaves turn red As they fall away
When the seasons turn
I know you’ve changed your mind again
Do you want me
Do you want it bad enough
Watch the mountains rise Through the countryside
Sitting side by side Trying to get it right
Yes, I know you God, I know you
Do you want me
Do you want it bad enough
Do you want me, baby
Will you make up your mind Little boy
Please make up your mind
And stop playing with mine
Will you make up your mind
Me and You
You and Me
Is all I need.
Me and You
You and me..
The lyrics to Tiff Randol’s song “Me and You” describe an uncertain and changing relationship between two people as they drive away, watching the leaves turn red and the sky turn grey, indicative of a change in seasons. This change in seasons represents the shifts and changes within the relationship, with the repeated phrase “I know you’ve changed your mind again” suggesting a lack of consistency or commitment. The singer wants to know whether the other person wants her enough, asking “Do you want me, baby?” multiple times throughout the song.
As they drive through the countryside, sitting side by side and watching the mountains rise, the singer acknowledges and knows the other person intimately, singing “Yes, I know you God, I know you.” However, despite this intimacy and knowledge, there is still uncertainty and hesitation on the other person’s part, with the repeated plea to “make up your mind little boy” and “stop playing with mine.”
Ultimately, the song is a plea for clarity, commitment, and certainty in a relationship that has been plagued by shifts and changes. The repetition of “Me and You, You and Me, Is all I need” emphasizes the importance of partnership and commitment in relationships.
