Thought it was easy to fall in love but you, you, you.
You're different this much I know yeah, you, you, you.
It might be your guile. It could be your mind.
It might be the way you take your time.
Oh, you, you, you.
You, it's you. It's you, you, you.
Oh, you. It's you. It's you, you, you.
I never know how much to say with you, you, you.
I like to go deep but is it safe with you, you, you.
It might be your needs. It could be your eyes.
It might be the way you don't sympathize.
Oh, you, you, you.
You. It's you. It's you, you, you.
Oh, you. It's you. It's you you you
You break laws and pay no fines. You get yours and then get mine.
I don't think it's easy to stay in love.
But you, you, you, you.
But you, yes you. It's you, you, you.
You. it's you. it's you, you, you.
Ah you
It's you. (x3)
Ah you, you, you, yes you.
With you, you, you, you ah.
You're different this much I know yeah, you, you, you.
It might be your guile. It could be your mind.
It might be the way you take your time.
Oh, you, you, you.
You, it's you. It's you, you, you.
Oh, you. It's you. It's you, you, you.
I never know how much to say with you, you, you.
I like to go deep but is it safe with you, you, you.
It might be your needs. It could be your eyes.
It might be the way you don't sympathize.
Oh, you, you, you.
You. It's you. It's you, you, you.
Oh, you. It's you. It's you you you
You break laws and pay no fines. You get yours and then get mine.
I don't think it's easy to stay in love.
But you, you, you, you.
But you, yes you. It's you, you, you.
You. it's you. it's you, you, you.
Ah you
It's you. (x3)
Ah you, you, you, yes you.
With you, you, you, you ah.

and it's obviously about selfish people, like eddie himself said
these are the lyrics of the first version wich is really way better. even catchier.
I think Eddie likes to have more meaning in his songs, nowadays.
He's saying that it's really hard for him to love this person and complains about a bunch of things that piss him off, but inspite of this he continues loving.
So, he's saying how difficult it was to fall in love, and in the end he says "I thought it was easy to stay in love", implying two things: first, that he actually did fall in love, and second, the repetitive structure implies that staying in love will be just like falling in love in the sense that there it will be as difficult and have a bunch of annoying things, but he'll be able to do it anyways.
The repitition of "you, you, you" to me represents two things: first, his fixation for the person he loves, which is a part of love, and second, the selfishness of that person for intending to be the center of the universe or something.
I think it's really nice how he describes the hard parts of falling in love. But I will go further in my interpretation: it appears to me that the person he loves doesn't treat him too well, is selfish, and makes him insecure about falling in love, but the beautiful thing is that he does. It's like his love is beyond these problems and the selfishness of this person... OK, maybe I went over the edge, but this is how I see the song.
1 : deceitful cunning : DUPLICITY
2 obsolete : STRATAGEM, TRICK
The differences:
- instead of "I like to go deep", "I'd like to go deep";
- instead of "the way you sympathize", "the way you don't sympathize";
- instead of "I don't think it's easy to stay in love", "I thought it was easy to stay in love"
