Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know if I believe you now,
But I will when you call my name
You tell me you′ll be back again soon,
I don't know if I believe you now,
But I will when you call my name
Don′t say, you won't stay
Or all my colours fade to grey
To grey...
The lyrics to Allen & Envy feat. Victoriya's song Don't Say speak of holding on to hope even when there is doubt. The singer is addressing someone who has promised to come back soon, but they are not sure if they can trust that promise. However, the singer holds onto the belief that they will return and confirms that they will believe it when they call their name.
The repetition of "don't say" highlights a plea for the person not to make promises they cannot keep, and not to say that they won't stay, as this will destroy the singer's hope and leave them feeling lost and empty. The line "or all my colours fade to grey" is a metaphor for what the singer will feel if the person does not come back - their world will lose its vibrancy and joy.
Overall, the lyrics in Don't Say showcase the emotions of hope, doubt, and fear of loss. The singer holds onto the promise of their loved one coming back and begs them not to break that promise, as it would crush their heart.

You tell me you'll be back again soon
You promise to come back to me soon
I don't know if I believe you now
I doubt what you say is true
But I will when you call my name
But I will believe you when I hear you call my name
Don't say, don't say
Please don't say it
Don't say, you won't stay
Don't tell me you won't stay with me
Or all my colours fade to grey
Otherwise, everything will become dull and lifeless for me
