Eddie Rabbitt & Crystal Gayle - You And I With lyrics

[@billmalone5050]

This song, “JUST YOU AND I” came out in November or December of 1982 when I was a young man so naive and full of hopes and dreams with my future before me…..long before heartbreak, failures and setbacks, shattered and broken dreams and crushing reality came down on me afterwards. Life knocked me down quite a few times. But I kept getting back up and I am still here. Even though I’m a jaded, cynical old man whose life didn’t turn out exactly the way that I wanted it to…..I am still truly grateful for the brief glimpses of love, happiness and joy that the lyrics of “JUST YOU AND I” talks about and celebrates. For a long time I didn’t want to hear this song because I felt like such a stupid fool for being dumb enough to buy into the lyrics of “JUST YOU AND I”. But I have always been, even at my most jaded and cynical moments…..a sweet, sappy, sentimental, mooshy, mushy, hopelessly romantic dreamer. I am still in love with love. And even though I never found the “girl of my dreams” or my “soul mate”, my heart is truly glad and happy when others get to experience the wonderfully incredible and beautiful gifts of love. I love it when love works and succeeds and boy meets girl and they fall in love and they end up getting to do the happily ever after and getting to share their lives together and make memories with each other and growing old with each other. Even now I love this song more than I ever did before. The music and lyrics of “JUST YOU AND I” by Eddie Rabbit and Crystal Gale are so beautiful and so powerful that I cry. But at the same time my heart sings and my soul soars with happiness and joy and that even after forty plus years, a jaded and cynical old man like me can still feel such strong emotions and still be grateful for having had even just a brief glimpse and taste of what real love was / is. Thank you so much, Eddie Rabbit and Crystal Gayle for singing “JUST YOU AND I”. And rest in peace , Eddie Rabbit (November 27, 1941-May 7, 1998).

Well ok, I'm a gay man and had 3 lasting relationships but lasting 4 to 7 yrs. My last one was 10 yrs together 8 yrs married. But he was abusive and one night I get this message from a guy that I didn't know I went out on a leap of faith and after kicking my 10 yr relationship to the curb , I'm very happy, the most happiest I've ever been, I'm so grateful the he walked in to my life I know I know it's only been 4 Mos but it feels as if we knew each other our whole lives he just turned 40 and I'm 48 but we are very happy together....

Eddie and Crystal were so far ahead of time with their cross-over hits spanning the gap between country and pop. Without them, we might not have today's country music.

This song is definitely one of a kind. Eddie and Crystal did just a amazing duet with this song.

This was our wedding song. For a reason I don't remember now, we couldn't get the song I wanted and this one was the second choice. We just celebrated our 30th anniversary this week. I haven't listened to this song since that first year. The lyrics are simple but looking back over our years together, these lyrics couldn't have been more perfect.

This song baited me into buying Eddie Rabbitt’s radio romance LP. One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. You play this record late in the evening and it’s like magic. Every song on that album is a masterpiece, but “You and I” will always have a special place in my heart. I as a 25 year old would love to have this as a wedding dance song, as so many others have done going by these comments. I just feel like very few people my age would understand.

Not to recapture my youth but so I could simply hold the love of my life just one last time. Thirty years together just wasn't long enough.
