"You are the music while the music lasts" is poetry. There will be many possible interpretations. To me, it means "Live in this very moment, and live this moment fully".
A second way to understand this line is to explore word meaning.
What does music represent? Joy? celebration? beauty? Next, focus on while's meaning; thus, we're faced with the fact that the "lasting" is a temporal rather than an eternal promise. To jump from T. S. Eliot to Walt Whitman is quite a leap, but Whitman's "I celebrate myself. . ." rather fits with this line. If I am the music, I choose the tempo, the lyrics and the genre.
