Interesting facts and trivia about You & I (Forever). By Songfacts®.

Jessie wrote this song after childhood sweetheart Sam Burrows proposed to her on the Greek island of Skopelos. She explained to The Guardian: "(It) is me celebrating the memory of the fact that he's proposed to me and that we'll be together for ever."

The song finds Jessie singing about her frustration regarding Sam's delay in proposing. "We waited such a long time, we've been going out forever," she said. "I wanted it to be this motorbike riding song, lots of yearning on an open highway."

Ware co-penned the song Los Angeles neo-soul singer-songwriter Miguel, with whom she also collaborated on another Tough Love track "Kind of…Sometimes…Maybe." She'd previously contributed vocals towards a remix of Miguel's hit single, "Adorn."
