About the Song

The song “Me and You” is about the narrator’s story about his relationship with his partner.

Everyday I live
Try my best to give
All I have to you
Thank the stars above
That we share this love
Me and you

When we see someone who seems to be attracted to us, we compliment the person. However, in this song, the narrator and his partner compliment each other. Hearing compliments from our partner means our beauty and personality attracts them. But remember, true beauty is not only based on the physical appearance of the person, but it is based on his/her personality.
