Story Behind The Song
"You And Me" can be classified as a simple, up-tempo pop/rock song. Written and composed by Georg Schlunegger of the Hitmill team, it revolves around the theme of relationships. People can interpret the theme in their own way, but the main theme is no matter what is going on around you, you know you have people to help you through the toughest times.
The group itself has said that "it is important for people to get along with each other across the generations, and to find unity in shared values".

The Video
There are two different versions of the video for this song. The first version, filmed prior to the Swiss national final, shows the group performing while riding escalators to depict the ups and downs that relationships can take
The second version, which is the official preview video for the contest, shows the unity of relationships as the group embarks on a road trip across Switzerland to Malmo in a Fiat 600, sharing the adventure together and enjoying the ride

Lyrics
When the times are getting rough, gold and silver turn to dust
People build their barricades out of jealousy and hate
But there's one thing they could never, never ever separate

Ah... let it hear from near and far
This is how it's meant to be, we're together, you and me
Ah... nothing can tear us apart
Sailing on a stormy sea, we're together, you and me

We build castles with our hands, on a solid ground they stand
They're our shelter from the storm, keep us safe and keep us warm
No, there's nothing that can hurt us, whatever there may come

Ah... let it hear from near and far
This is how it's meant to be, we're together, you and me
Ah... nothing can tear us apart
Sailing on a stormy sea, we're together, you and me

Time is flowing to the sea, but it's still you and me
Nothing's like it used to be, but we're here, you and me

Ah... let it hear from near and far
This is how it's meant to be, we're together, you and me
Ah... nothing can tear us apart
Sailing on a stormy sea, we're together, you and me

Ah, nothing can tear us apart
Sailing on a stormy sea, we're together, you and me
