Melissa Manchester - Just You And I Lyrics






When your heroes go up in a puff
And there's not enough to hang on to
And the ones you would count on to call
They all fall down all around you
Then you've got to believe there's more
It is the reason we're put here for
It's just you and I
When the legend's over, and we have just begun
We can look to each other to see us through
Just you and I

When a miracle's long overdue
And there's no one who's gonna come to guide you
So you keep looking up to the sky, wondering why
The clouds won't hide you
At the times when you're most afraid
That is the reason why dreams are made
It's just you and I
When the legend's over, and we have just begun
We can look to each other to see us through
Just you and I

At the times when you're most afraid
That is the reason why dreams are made
It's just you and I
When the legend's over, and we have just begun
We can look to each other to see us through
Just you and I
...

    Flawless, absolutely Flawless!

    Could someone please upload the Melissa Manchester song: " You And Me " From her 1980 " For The Working Girl " LP ?

  3. I.... a....

    I wonder if she is part native she has the bone strucksure

  4. f.... ....

    Such a great song... great vocal... great piano... great arrangement... really love this song... This is my favorite song she has written... not all that well known, and sometimes she doesn't even perform it in her shows...

  5. H.... H....

    Melissa got me through adolescent years with her powerful, meaningful songs.

  6. E.... ....

    There's just something about that piano and strings in syncopation with her voice.

  7. J.... H....

    Fabulous!

  8. J.... F....

    Genial Melissa

    J.... F....

    Si, Jose.

    I was 12 years old and i had lost my mom ..my dad was present and loving ..but i was lost i remembered this song in my soul. It was the spirit world and i and they did ( earthly friends) all fall down around me. No one bothered to see that i was bi polar ...dissociative and i will NEVER BE what horrible things they called me. Thank you Ms Manchester. This is an anthem for the single gay man whom GOD gave life to. And you are brilliant...M Manchester. I miss you if you ever need to join a voice. So many of your words i lived. Bless you wherever. You are Actress..Writer...Phenomenal inspiration. ❤🙏

    A.... L....

    Al I'm going through the same trauma you are. Melissa is great. The 70s don't seem so far away. 80s on Sirius XM had the Top 40 of January 9, 1982 all Weekend. Why not more 80s music. The 70s, 80s and 90s are the best. Do you like Sam Hunt and Brad Paisley. Brad is cool.

    A.... L....

    Bless you, Al, from your lesbian Melissa-loving sister.

  11. 1.... ....

  26. M.... G....

    one of the best

  27. g.... ....

    a song i wouldnt mind listening to on my death bed

  28. m.... ....

    She was only in her mid 20s when this was a hit. Nowadays, musicians that young are just so musically (and literally) immature! Melissa is a classy lady!

  29. D.... ....

    MM's music has never failed to move me.

  30. c.... b....

    Love Melissa! Just saw her in Vegas last weekend! it was fantastic! Thanks for posting
    her videos!

  31. S.... M....

    This song has got me through some tough times over the years. Even when I was alone. The "You" of "You and I" became faith that I was not alone. "To see us through". I know it sounds sappy...but we all go through sh**. And this song helped me through. Thank you Melissa.

    S.... M....

    Melissa Manchester's songs got me through, too, Shan. Nothing sappy about it! You are not alone.

  32. j.... ....

    This was one of my very favorite songs 30+ years ago, and I used to have it in my repertoire when I still played.

  33. M.... ....

    She is so talented. Had all of her albums in the 70's.

  34. M.... R....

    this song is completely different from what Eddie and Crystal sing. completely different.

  35. k.... ....

    First saw/heard Melissa Manchester in the 1970`s and love her just as much today. Will be seeing her here in Vegas in February.

  36. r.... ....

    A truly classic voice. Timeless!

  37. g.... ....

    "There's just You and I" is almost perfect English. Nominative case is good. You might want to say there "are" no "me" here.

  38. D.... W....

    If Melissa was the lyricist, she used improper English. It SHOULD be 'Just you and me'. Think 'bout it. Without the 'you and' it'd be 'Just I'. LOL! Melissa hit #27 in Billboard, 3-13-76. God bless ya, for postin' it. Shalom, Melissa and Carole. Thanx!
