about

*This track is a Dolby Atmos/Surround mix

"The melody came to me first... as it usually does. I just couldn't get it out of my head. The repetitive, 'Ooh...' which eventually became, 'You...'

I also couldn't shake the imagery of walking around town at night with my significant other. Some of the best conversations I've had with my partner are when we walk around the neighborhood at night. We often discuss plans for the future, point out which houses we like, or talk about what's going through our minds.

I thought about how much I would miss those moments together if he ever left me... How much I would miss that deep connection. Eventually, the song morphed into my perception of what it might feel like to lose the love of your life.

I feel like the overall tone and production of this song really encompasses that feeling of haunted loneliness from lost love."

~ Amanda Jean

YOU
© Copyright December 8, 2018, Written & Composed by Amanda Jean Wourms

You...
You...

I don’t know what tomorrow brings but I could use some time
To clear my head and get these memories off my mind
Walked around this lonely town late at night
Counting houses dreaming about a whole new life

What I'd give again to have you by my side
Oh, honey I tried to hold onto

You...
Ooh...
You’re never coming back to what we had
You’re moving on, yeah
You’re just passing through
But I’m still in love with you
Hm...

I don’t know where yesterday has gone
It’s all a blur
Ever since you left
I try to numb this hurt
Stumbling around
Wandering out into the dark
Try to mend what you’ve left of this ol’ heart

What I’d give again to feel the sun shine through
Oh, I still need you

You...
You...
You’re never coming back to what we had
You’re moving on, yeah
You’re just passing through
But I’m still in love with you
Hm...

Ooh...
Ooh...

You...
You...
You...
You’re just passing through
