Accompanying the sweet melodies and vocals is the sweet and charming lyrics. The singer is talking to their dearly beloved and humbly saying that while he doesn’t have much(material) they are willing to give everything they have, whether it is abstract or concrete.
Following the “April” EP story, “...
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Close your eyes
Let it flow inside
It's paradise
Light it up and drive
[Chorus]
I ain't got much
But it's yours
All of this
I ain't got much
But it's yours (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
Liquid skies
Playful like a child
It's you and I
We laugh and then we cry
[Chorus]
I ain't got much
But it's yours
All of this
I ain't got much
But it's yours (if you want it)
You and I was written by T.G. Conway & Jakob & Cary Gilbert & Allan Felder.
You and I was produced by Jakob.
The EP is all about relationships. “Atari Acid” is in many ways the first part of the story, “April” follows, while “You & I” is just …bliss.
