You & Me, a song by Rob Cantor, was originally sung by Zubin Sedghi when they first began to perform the song at shows, however, Rob apparently sung it on the demo. According to a fan who spoke with the band about the switch, Rob said that when they got in the studio, the producer (Tony Hoffer) wanted him to sing lead just as he had on the original demo. YouTube holds a couple videos still of the performances with Zubin on lead vocals.

You & Me was the first single released off of Good & Evil. It was released on May 2nd, 2011 via the music blog Consequence Of Sound (CoS). [1]


Lyrics

Starting out a road, carefully unload
Open-eyed and all the light is falling
Back and forth, and I concede of course
Maybe I am in the way recalling

It's just you

Off again we go, another seed to sow
Another part to keep in proper order
What have I begun? A getaway undone
I have seen the signs and I ignored them

Now it's you and me
Divine, a circular design
Do do-do do-do
Time and place in mind
Points along a line
Do do-do do-do

Sitting in the park, I carefully remark
"Everything is better when you're learning"
You were in the dark, I was in the dark
Everything is made to keep on turning

It's just you and me
Divine, a circular design
Do do-do do-do
Time and place in mind
Points along a line
Do do-do do-do
You and me return to be
In orbit all the time

You turn away and around
I've been coming down, I've been coming down
You turn away and around
I've been coming down, I've been coming down
(You and me divine a circular design)
You turn away and around
I've been coming down, I've been coming down
(Time and place in mind points along a line)
You turn away and around
I've been coming down, I've been coming down
