Getting the Right Lyrics for "Give Me You"
Most people searching for this are running into the same mess. There are at least three or four different songs called "Give Me You" floating around. The one everyone actually wants is by Marianas Trench from their 2015 album Trench. If you pulled up lyrics for a completely different track instead, that's probably what happened. I've seen it dozens of times on forums. The fix is simple once you know which one you're dealing with. The vocals on that track sit in a surprisingly narrow range for pop, but the phrasing is where people get tripped up. Trench tends to cluster consonants in ways that make automated lyric generators mess up badly. I spent about twenty minutes one night trying to transcribe the pre-chorus manually because every site had at least one wrong word in it. What I found was that the line actually goes "I just wanna feel you close" not "I just wanna feel you most" — minor difference but it changes the whole tone of the verse if you get it wrong.
Give Me You Lyrics by Marianas Trench
We've been walking in circles again
Trying to find our way back home
And every road leads to the pain
Of knowing that we'd rather roam
But I just wanna feel you close
Not wonder where your heart has gone
So give me you, don't hold back now
I've waited long enough
Chorus:
Give me you, all of you
Every piece that makes you whole
Give me you, in everything
I'm not going anywhere tonight
I've been running from the truth
And hiding from what we could be
But I need to stop my proof
And finally set myself free
'Cause I just wanna feel you close
Not wonder where your heart has gone
So give me you, don't hold back now
I've waited long enough Here's the part nobody tells you about these kinds of searches. Licensed lyrics sites like LyricFind or Musixmatch will have the verified text, but they're often behind aggressive ad walls and sometimes the lyrics are slightly off compared to what the band actually sings. Fan-generated sites like Genius tend to be more accurate on the actual words but add a ton of commentary you might not want. My workaround has been to pull from the band's own verified social channels when available, then cross-reference with Genius annotations for any disputed lines. It takes maybe five minutes longer but saves you from printing the wrong words on a poster or getting embarrassed singing along. If you need the lyrics for a specific purpose — karaoke files, a translation project, sheet music — the Marianas Trench version is in standard pop structure. Verse, pre-chorus, chorus, repeat. Time signature is 4/4. The bridge is where people usually want more detail, and that's where the unofficial transcriptions fall apart most often. The bridge shifts briefly into a quieter dynamics before building back. Some sites list it differently depending on whether they're transcribing from the album version or the live versions, which occasionally drop bars.
I should mention the limitation here. A lot of lyric sites don't distinguish between the album version and remixes or live performances, and the lyrics can shift slightly between them. If you're working from a live recording, the version on the studio album might have two extra lines or a reordered section. Always check which version the lyrics are pulled from. It's a small thing but it matters if you're trying to match lyrics to a specific recording. For actual download of the official lyrics, there isn't really a clean single-source option. The music publisher holds the rights, and they license through services like LyricFind which feed into Spotify, Apple Music, and similar platforms. Those platforms display the lyrics inline but don't offer a standalone downloadable file. If you need a clean text file, your best bet is to pull from the licensed platform and save it yourself, or use a reputable lyrics API if you're building something. The track runs about three minutes and twenty seconds. If you're learning to sing it, start slow with the pre-chorus — that's the section where the melody jumps and people usually rush it. Once you can nail that transition into the chorus cleanly, the rest falls into place pretty quickly.
