COME TOGETHER
Demi Lovato Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You breathe, I feel it in my bones
The world's suspended
We fall faster than a stone
I knew the minute I met you
That I had to have you or I'd die
Hold back, I had to hold backNo way to hold me back tonight
Don't rush, I love a slow touch
And you're doin' everything just right
Hold back, you gotta hold back
You gotta hold back 'til it's time
Got me closer to the edge than ever
We both want it but we don't surrender
And we could make it last forever
But paradise is even better when we come together
We dance in darkness
Your hands send shivers down my spine
I knew the minute I met you
That I had to have you or I'd die
Hold back, I had to hold back
No way to hold me back tonight
Don't rush, I love a slow touch
And you're doin' everything just right
Hold back, you gotta hold back
You gotta hold back 'til it's time
Got me closer to the edge than ever
We both want it but we don't surrender
And we could make it last foreverBut paradise is even better when we come together
Come together
Feels like the first time
Every night with you
Heaven is real life
There's nothing I'd rather do
Ooh, together
Got me closer to the edge than ever
We both want it but we don't surrender
And we could make it last forever
But paradise is even better when we come
together
The lyrics to Demi Lovato's song Come Together are about a passionate romantic connection between two people. The opening lines, "You lead, I follow / You breathe, I feel it in my bones / The world's suspended / We fall faster than a stone" suggest that the two individuals are deeply connected and in sync with one another. The singer goes on to describe their intense attraction, stating "I knew the minute I met you / That I had to have you or I'd die." However, there is a sense of caution and self-restraint in the lyrics as well, with lines like "Hold back, you gotta hold back / You gotta hold back 'til it's time." This hints that the singer wants to take things slowly and enjoy the journey, rather than jumping into the relationship impulsively.
The chorus of the song reinforces the idea that the two individuals are experiencing a powerful, almost overwhelming attraction to one another. They are "closer to the edge than ever," but are both hesitant to surrender completely. However, the paradise they can create together is worth the risk. The lyrics suggest that their physical connection is just as intense as their emotional one, with phrases like "Your hands send shivers down my spine" and "We dance in darkness." The final lines of the song repeat the idea that being together is an almost otherworldly experience, as they both feel like "Heaven is real life" and "There's nothing I'd rather do."
