About "you" in Thai.
There are two word, "Kun" and "Tur", mean "You" in Thai.
"Tur" is usually more friendly word.

In a strict sense,

[Kun] Use against elder person with showing respect and honor.
[Tur] Use against younger person or friend.

I think,
[Tur] is good sound and there is no age between a lover and a love.
So Thai song uses [Tur] much.

A nuance between [Kun] and [Tur],
When they start to have friendly,
[Kun].
When they become lovers,
[Chun Ruk Tur]
I think so . . .
