The time has come for me to take my bows and leave the stage,
But I feel I’m just beginning,
There’s so many things I want to say before I go,
But I’ll be back, to sing again;

And I’ll lead you through the ancient halls and stories of the past,
And the many ways of loving,
And when all is said and done, there’s only you and me,
You and me…

About Lyrics and You And Me by Chris De Burgh

When you decide to study the lyrics to You And Me, you're looking at the words, verses and background chorus from the 1979 song by Chris De Burgh. Some of the lyrics to You And Me have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references. Like most songs, only Chris De Burgh and their collaborators know the full story behind any of the their songs.

You can understand the lyrics to You And Me if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to You And Me" means the words set to the music of You And Me, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Chris De Burgh. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to You And Me and the lyrics to You And Me are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Chris De Burgh who came here looking just for the lyrics to You And Me, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
