Come to me
Barons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I let you
We broke the ties that bind
I wanted to forget you
And leave the past behind
Still, the magic of the night I met you
Seems to stay forever in my mind
And high above
The moon was new
And so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover where can you be
You came at last
Love had its day
That day is past
You've gone away
This aching heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When I remember every little thing
You used to do
I'm so lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When I remember every little thing
You used to do
I grow lonely
Every road I walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
The lyrics to Barons's song "Come To Me" tell the tale of a lost love and the lingering feelings of heartache and longing that encircle the singer's thoughts. The song starts with the lament of a broken connection between two individuals who once shared love but whose ties have been severed. The singer expresses a desire to forget their past love and the memories that have been imprinted in their mind since they first met. Despite this, the singer's memory is haunted by the "magic of the night" that they first encountered their lover - this memory seems to refuse to fade away.
The second verse of the song recounts the emotions that overtook the singer when they first fell in love. The sky was blue, and the stars were shining; it was as if they were both embarking on a new adventure together. The singer's heart was eagerly waiting to meet their love, but now they are left with only heartache and sadness. The chorus repeats the opening concept of the song - this aching heart yearns for their lover to come back to them, to alleviate the pain that they currently feel.
The final verse has the singer admitting that they grow increasingly lonely with every passing day, with every road they walk along, they feel a pang of sadness because they are walking alone instead of with their lover. The sky is still blue, the night still cold, and the moon still new, but their love is old - love that now seems like something that can never be rekindled. However, the singer's heart's song remains the same - lover, come back to me.
Overall, the lyrics to "Come To Me" convey a kind of heart-wrenching melancholy that stems from the loss of a love that can never be regained once it has been lost.

You went away
You left me
I let you
I allowed you to leave
We broke the ties that bind
We ended our relationship
I wanted to forget you
I wanted to erase you from my memory
And leave the past behind
And move on from what happened
Still, the magic of the night I met you
However, the special feeling from the night we first met
Seems to stay forever in my mind
Remains etched in my memory for eternity
The sky was blue
The sky had a blue color
And high above
Positioned far up
The moon was new
The moon was in its early phase
And so was love
And our love was fresh and new
This eager heart of mine was singing
My heart was filled with anticipation and excitement
Lover where can you be
I wondered where you were
You came at last
Eventually, you arrived
Love had its day
Our love had its moment of glory
That day is past
That time is gone
You've gone away
You've left again
This aching heart of mine is singing
My heart is filled with pain and longing
Lover come back to me
I want you to return to me
When I remember every little thing
As I reminisce on every detail
You used to do
All the things you did before
I'm so lonely
I feel very alone
Every road I walk along
Every path I take
I walk along with you
I feel your presence with me
No wonder I am lonely
No surprise that I feel alone
The sky is blue
The sky is still blue
The night is cold
The night is frigid
But love is old
But our love is fading
And while I'm waiting here
As I wait for you
This heart of mine is singing
My heart is still filled with longing
Lover come back to me
I want you to come back to me
