There's No More You and Me
Echoes of a Fading Love: Unveiling Marty Robbins' Melancholic Tale
Lyrics
There's no more you and me
Expressing the absence of a relationship between the speaker and the addressed person.
There's just a memory
Highlighting that only memories of the past relationship remain.
A sometimes, now and then,
Describing the sporadic nature of the memories, suggesting they arise occasionally.
Is all we shared
Acknowledging that the shared experiences are limited to occasional memories.
He's still a part of you
Suggesting that a third person, referred to as "he," is still a presence in the addressed person's life.
Wish I had the power to
Expressing a desire for the ability to regain happiness and joy.
Give back the smile to me
Referring to the smile that was taken away, likely by the mentioned third person.
He took away
Stating that the third person took away the speaker's happiness represented by the smile.
And then there could be
Introducing the possibility of a new relationship with someone else.
Another you and me
Emphasizing the potential for a fresh start with another person.
Maybe then your eyes would be
Suggesting that the speaker's presence could captivate the addressed person's eyes.
Filled with only me again
Expressing a hope for exclusivity in the addressed person's feelings, with a focus on the speaker.
There's no more you and me
Repeating the refrain, underscoring the finality of the original relationship.
There's just a memory
Reiterating the idea that only memories remain from the past relationship.
I'm hurt, but still I see
Acknowledging emotional pain but maintaining awareness of the truth.
There's no more you and me
Reaffirming the absence of the original relationship between the speaker and the addressed person.
And then there could be
Reintroducing the possibility of a new relationship with someone else.
Another you and me
Restating the potential for a fresh start with a different person.
Maybe then your eyes would be
Reiterating the desire for exclusive attention and affection from the addressed person.
Filled with only me again
Expressing a hope to be the sole focus of the addressed person's eyes.
There's no more you and me
Repeating the refrain, emphasizing the irrevocable end of the original relationship.
There's just a memory
Reiterating that only memories persist from the past relationship.
I'm hurt, but now I see
Acknowledging emotional pain but emphasizing a newfound understanding of reality.
There's no more you and me
Affirming the permanent absence of the original relationship between the speaker and the addressed person.
There's no more you and me
Concluding with the definitive statement that the original relationship no longer exists.
