James Taylor - You And I Again Lyrics






You and I again, these days go by
And I wish that I could slow the whole thing down
And have it back again, just one more time
Then again maybe we can, 'cause I can't escape this feeling
That we've been this way together, you and I

There you are again, I climbed so high
High enough to finally see your sign
Shining in the distance
You were tending your own fire
We were biding our time
We were both waiting for the moment
When our paths would come together, you and I

I see how fierce you are
Whenever the world would drag us down
How serious you are
Standing on holy ground

And so although I know we're only small
In the time we have here
Surely we have it all

I see how fierce you are
Whenever this world would drag us down
How serious you are
Standing on holy ground

And so although I know we're only small
In the time we have here
This time we have it all
You and I again

James Taylor You And I Again Comments
  1. P.... A....

    A stroke of genius having Yo-yo Ma playing on this song. A song built to last, by the man who in my opinion will be the most enduring songwriter of his time. So glad he continues to share his voice with the world.

    Beautifully composed & performed !

  6. U.... M....

    Maestro James, you are a gift to your fellow humans, a gift to this Earth.

  7. K.... ....

    Has always bean my favorite, have seen every concert......just wish he had different political views or at least kept them to himself.

  8. L.... A....

    Went to see him at Tanglewood last summer.... I was in love with him before and didn’t think it was possible to appreciate him more than I already did, but to see him live brings his genius, soul and creativity to a whole different level. There will never be another James Taylor...

  9. A.... ....

    Soulmates from other incarnation...knew he felt cosmic connections

  10. W.... T....

    Why isn’t this on mainstream radio?!?

  11. J.... G....

    Lindaca amo muito romântica pura nostalgia de bem estar 🌹🍀💋👍♥️⭐💋🍸

  12. r.... s....

    Thank You 🌷

  13. J.... G....

    I Love you James Taylor sempre🍸⭐💋🌷

  14. J.... G....

    I love you James Taylor 💋🌹👍

  15. J.... R....

    James was brilliant to bring Steve Gadd in to his camp to create great music like this THE album is full of Steve's signature magic touch This track works because of the textures he adds to every part if the song

  16. L.... ....

    Lord, I don't ask for much but could you please keep James Taylor Alive to just keep putting albums out?
    I realize it's asking a lot but just consider it please?

    Much love as always

  17. G.... M....

    lame...and the cover of the album...lousy photo...who wears grey dress slacks with a denim shirt..only your old uncle whose apartment always smells like farts...and that hat....puhlease...you are bald...deal with it...man...you have to be either an old dude with a calcified prostate or a withered old woman with sagging breasts and liver spots to appreciate this slop...

  18. D.... A....

    Obviously stating the obvious, but JT is truly in a class by himself. How in the world does he come up with these chord changes/melodies? Incredible!

  19. S.... C....

    Fantastic song....

  20. j.... ....

    James Taylor's songs are amazingly beautiful. And James is a musician for eternity.

  21. S.... B....

    Oh my gosh there are no words to explain how much I love his music. It's been a part of my life for so long. I just went to his concert in July of 2014. Totally a bucket list concert for me. It was so amazing. You & I, may be my new favorite James Taylor song.

  22. M.... B....

    Perfection !

  23. S.... V....

    i always loved his music but found this album weak, stick to singing fire and rain pal or get back on heroin, seems to help you with the song writing process.

    S.... V....

    A nasty, small-minded comment. Does putting him down and suggesting a return to his unhappy past make you feel good, somehow?

    S.... V....

    hey, i think he is good but lets face it, that last album sucked ass.if he has to suffer for me to enjoy his music i'm all for it.

    S.... V....

    I felt that the Covers cd and this one were the weakest efforts I've heard by him.I just think his life is different now and its reflected in his music.He is still my favorite singer/ songwriter but sometimes when the artists are in a "happy place" you don't get the angst in their music, that identifies their styles so much! But I certainly don't wish him to be unhappy! I'll just enjoy his older stuff!! =)

  24. c.... ....

    I am so happy for James and this wonderful and most beautiful album. Thank you friend, brother, James Taylor.

  25. T.... B....

    i hate being old

  26. J.... F....

    Still the greatest! Love you James!

  27. k.... h....

    second time writing on this page...ran out of time. This music dicusses feelings and I don't like going there unless I am with someone who murtually loves me so it is not the time for me....sorry.

  28. J.... M....

    wow a beautiful song

  29. C.... c....

    Grande James,

  30. C.... D....

    Very nostalgic - pure & beautiful music!

  31. M.... ....

    James Taylor is indeed a master at his craft. I have had his music in my collection since the early 70's, he is a gifted man. I so enjoy the way he weaves the various instruments into his songs and the melodies that bring warmth to your heart.  One day I will enjoy him live and enjoy some of that "in person" warmth. Keep the music coming JT!

    M.... ....

    He's as good or better live as on whatever media.........

  32. A.... C....

    This may sound weird but James Taylor's voice hugs you like an old friend.

    A.... C....

    Not weird, at all -- I agree.

    A.... C....

    not weird at all

    A.... C....

    Alan Callahan that’s a perfect analogy! ❤️

  33. K.... G....

    James Taylor is a National Treasure!

    K.... G....

    My sentiments exactly!!!

  34. K.... G....

    I love the whole album. But nothing in this world beats seeing him live in concert!

    K.... G....

    +Katherine Goard 100% agree live is amazing seen him 4 times in Utah Wolf Mountain..man it was great...

    K.... G....

    He is one amazing musician.   Couldn't believe when I heard him tell the Beatles got him his first start!  Saw an interview on Audience channel a few weeks ago and he was totally up front and amazing to listen to tell his story and sing.. wish I could see him live now. I saw him in 78.. just him on the corner of the stage with his guitar on a stool in a white t-shirt.  band behind the curtain..last set, he opened the curtain.. what a memory!

    K.... G....

    Thank you for your comment wish I could have seen him then...

    K.... G....

    His voice has not changed one little bit is the amazing thing!   And you are very welcome for the comment!  I loved yours too!  Wish I could see him now. LIVE.  :)
