Adapted from the poem “You and You Again” by Wade Stevenson.
CHORUS VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICE 1
Here she comes
VOICE 2
and it’s you again
VOICE 3
who else could it be
VOICE 2
could
VOICE 1
Only be you
and it’s true
it’s you again
and only you because
VOICE 2
Only you are the one
VOICE 3
who is truly
with the other me
VOICE 2
who cleaves
VOICES 1 & 2
To you in birth and death
VOICE 3
and love and joy
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
and sorrow and longing
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICES 1 & 2
And this is more than we thought
VOICE 2
or could reasonably bear
VOICE 1
But it all has to do with you
VOICE 2
and how you
VOICE 3
appeared and came
VOICE 2
Disappeared and
VOICE 1
came back so that
VOICE 3
no matter
VOICE 2
where
VOICE 1
or when
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICE 1
It was always you yes
VOICE 2
you coming back again
VOICE 1
and being
VOICE 2
with me
VOICE 1
There was no one else
VOICE 2
there never could have been
VOICE 3
or would ever be
VOICE 2
It was always just you and I said you now
VOICE 1
andyouagain
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
and you encore
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICE 1
And you coming
VOICE 2
and going
VOICE 1
but coming back and
VOICE 2
always again and once
VOICE 1
More with me and I with you
VOICE 2
so that together
VOICE 1
you and I
VOICE 2
we are as one as one
VOICE 3
as one
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
we are as one
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICES 1 & 2
One in two or two in one
VOICE 3
it is hard to say
VOICE 1
because it is half
VOICE 2
you and half
VOICE 1
me
VOICE 2
half me If it were
VOICE 1
more me than you
VOICE 2
or more you
VOICE 1
than me
VOICES 1 & 2
it wouldn’t be who we are
VOICE 3
Because what
VOICE 2
we are
VOICE 1
is made
VOICE 2
of half of
VOICE 3
each other’s wholeness
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
each other’s wholeness
VOICE 3
just like
VOICE 1
One egg split
VOICE 3
and then joined the egg together
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
the egg sublime or divine
VOICES 1 & 2
the egg sublime or divine
VOICE 1
the egg sublime or divine
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICE 3
What matters is the oneness of it
VOICE 2
the wholeness
VOICE 1
the holiness of it
VOICE 3
the holiness of it
VOICES 1 & 2
the holiness of it
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
The holding indivisible and
VOICE 2
togetherness of it
VOICES 1 & 2
the two bodies joined
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICES 1 & 2
You and me
VOICE 1
beyond life and death
VOICE 2
beyond the coming and the going
VOICE 3
beyond the coming and the going
VOICE 1
beyond life and death
VOICES 1 & 2
You and me
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
beyond the coming and the going
CHORUS
You and you again and you
once more and
then again and
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
Now as one now joined
as one merged
as one meshed
VOICE 1
as one moving
VOICE 2
as one
VOICE 1
as one
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
as onemoving as one
VOICE 3
Immovable
VOICE 2
as one
VOICE 1
for now
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
and always think about it (repeat)
VOICE 1
don’t ever forget
VOICES 1 & 2 & 3
and always think about it
don’t ever forget
CHORUS
Don’t ever forget
As one moving
Beyond life and death
Two bodies joined
The wholeness or
Holiness of it
The egg sublime
Or
Divine
The holiness of it
Don’t ever forget
You and you again and you
once more and
then again
