Marsh - British Progressive House Producer. Tom Marshall
Following his debut ‘You’ll Be Fine’ released on Silk Music’s Arrival imprint in June 2012, half a year was all it took for the UK’s Tom Marshall, aka. Marsh to gain the spotlight amongst many electronic dance music stars.
Recognised for his high energy grooves, pulsating beats and endorphin inducing melodies, it comes as no surprise that the Brit has already gained support by leading talents Dinka, Solarstone, Max Graham, Myon & Shane 54. Yet it is his widely acclaimed ‘Sleeping Now’ taken from his ‘Ethereal EP’ which has gained the most attention to date. Supported by Above & Beyond as both their ‘Trance Around The World, Record Of The Week’ and ‘Web Vote Winner’, the track has later become the record company Arrival’s best seller and continues to stir the hearts of many progressive fans worldwide.
With fresh EPs, remixes, collaborations all in the pipeline, 2013 looks to be Marsh’s biggest year yet. Expect music that will speak directly to the soul.
You & I
marsh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m thinking about letting go
Our time has run its course
We bought and sold the horse
We’re a different couple
In times of trouble
Our hands in our pockets
Our tails between our legs
I don’t want a reason for you to cry
I’m still waiting for you
If given another chance
Would we repeat this dance?
The questions keep me up
The questions, do they keep you up?
I never understood why we were competing
I never shared the feeling of love fleeting
And if you asked me now
I’d tell you how
I’m still waiting for you.
I’m still waiting for you.
The lyrics to Marsh feat. Jesse Bullitt's song "You & I" explore the complexities and uncertainties of a relationship that has reached an impasse. The singer reflects on the idea that they may need to let go of the relationship and move on, but they are also still waiting for their partner to come back to them. The imagery of buying and selling a horse is used to represent the investment that they have made in the relationship, and the couple is portrayed as being different from each other and unsure of how to handle difficult times.
The singer expresses their unwillingness to say goodbye and to give their partner a reason to cry, but they are consumed by questions about their future together. Despite the doubts and uncertainties, the singer still believes that there is a chance for them to make things work, and they reflect on the fact that they never understood why they were competing against each other in the first place. The repetition of the phrase "I’m still waiting for you" underscores the singer's unwillingness to let go of the relationship entirely, even as they confront the possibility that it may be time to move on.
Overall, the lyrics to "You & I" capture the often-complicated emotions and decisions at play in a relationship that has reached a crossroads. The singer vacillates between a desire to cling to the past and a recognition that they may need to let go in order to move forward. The imagery of a horse and competing with one another is used to illustrate the difficulties of maintaining a relationship when both parties are not on the same page.

It’s time I let you know
I need to tell you something
I’m thinking about letting go
I’m considering ending our relationship
Our time has run its course
Our relationship has reached its natural end
We bought and sold the horse
We invested time and effort in this relationship
We’re a different couple
We have changed as people since we started dating
In times of trouble
When things get difficult
Our hands in our pockets
We feel helpless
Our tails between our legs
We feel ashamed or embarrassed
I don’t really want to talk about goodbyes
I am afraid of ending things with you
I don’t want a reason for you to cry
I don’t want to hurt you
I’m still waiting for you
I’m still holding onto hope that we can work things out
If given another chance
If we had the opportunity to try again
Would we repeat this dance?
Would we make the same mistakes?
The questions keep me up
I am constantly thinking about these issues
The questions, do they keep you up?
Are you also struggling with these questions?
I never understood why we were competing
I don’t understand why our relationship became a competition
I never shared the feeling of love fleeting
I never felt like our love was temporary
And if you asked me now
If you asked me how I truly feel
I’d tell you how
I would express my feelings openly
I’m still waiting for you.
I still hope that we can make this work

Featuring the honeyed vocals of the artist himself, this memorable tune has received early radio support from Above & Beyond, who introduced Marsh to the world in 2012, when they generously bestowed "Record of the Week" honors upon his "Sleeping Now."

I had to listen to this track 2-3 times to finally understand how good this is! I just love the (background)melody. If only more people would listen to that kind of music...
@monstercatsilk
Thanks, Phil! Appreciate you giving this song a few listens to evaluate it properly.
