I came across this article on the Net and I'm hoping it will yield something.
It talks about a Noun Case, and more specifically the Vocative, which can sometimes appear all by itself as a sentence.
Ex.
Watch out, John!
John, watch out!
Or simply:
John!

The pronoun "you" inserted in the example above is also quite common for vocatives.
