You and I Lyrics

[Verse 1: Richard Hawley]
I like the way you look at me, baby
Please don't try to turn out the lights
I act as if I'm not going crazy
But girl, I'm in a muddle tonight
Would you tell me where you're gonna take it?
If I had a heart, you're the one who should break it
The engine's running
Can't decide if I should ride away

[Chorus: Richard Hawley & Alex Turner]
You and I
You and I

[Bridge: Richard Hawley]
I had a woman, she went away
And now I'm lonely
Fuck it

[Chorus: Richard Hawley & Alex Turner]
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Richard Hawley]
Would you tell me where you're gonna take it?
If I had a heart, you're the one who should break it
The engine's running
Can't decide if I should ride away

[Chorus: Richard Hawley & Alex Turner]
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I

[Verse 3: Richard Hawley]
I like the way you look at me, baby
Please don't try to turn out the lights
I act as if I'm not going crazy
But girl, I'm in a muddle tonight

About

An awesome duet between the two darlings of Sheffield, The Monkeys and Hawley paint a picture of a tough guy in trouble with love.

The result is one of the hardest songs either act has ever done, and a blues tinged masterpiece included only on the B-Side of Black Treacle.

The song was credited to “Richard Hawley and the Death Ramps”, the Death Ramps being an alias of the Arctic Monkeys first used in 2007 on the Teddy Picker EP.
