Follow Me
Eiffel 65 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will lead the way
To the very end of the things I pray
And all that I know I will pass on
Until the day you will need me no more.
[x3]
Follow me because
To the very end of the things I pray
And all that I know I will pass on ...
I will take you to where you've never been before.
And I'll show you all of this colourful world
And when the moment comes that you will carry on,
You, you'll do the same
You will lead the game
For another, another
Just like you.
Follow me because
I will lead the way
To the very end of the things I pray
And all that I know I will pass on
Until the day you will need me no more.
[x2]
I will take you to where you've never been before.
And I'll show you all of this colourful world
And when the moment comes that you will carry on,
You, you'll do the same
You will lead the game
For another, another
Just like you.
Follow me because
I will lead the way
To the very end of the things I pray
And all that I know I will pass on
Until the day you will need me no more. [x4]
The lyrics to Eiffel 65's "Follow Me" speak to a desire to lead others to new experiences and leave a lasting impact on their lives. The repeated refrain of "Follow me because I will lead the way to the very end of the things I pray" implies a sense of guidance and direction, with the singer serving as a kind of spiritual or emotional role model for the person they are addressing. The lines "I will take you to where you've never been before / And I'll show you all of this colorful world" suggest a sense of adventure and curiosity, with the singer eager to expose their companion to new sights, sounds, and experiences.
However, there is also a sense of impermanence that runs throughout the song. The repeated line "Until the day you will need me no more" implies a sense of inevitability, as if the singer knows that their time with this person is limited and that they will eventually need to move on. This seems to be reflected in the final lines of the song, which state "You will lead the game for another, another / Just like you," suggesting that the person being addressed will eventually become a leader or mentor themselves, passing on what they have learned to others.
Overall, "Follow Me" is a song about the importance of leaving a positive impact on the lives of others, even if it means eventually letting go and moving on. The singer serves as a kind of guide or mentor, leading their companion to new experiences and helping them grow, while also acknowledging that their time together is limited.

Eiffel 65, I love you โฅโฅโฅ
You saved my life several times, and today, more than ever, I need your songs...
Thank you for such great songs and melodies that marked me, touched me, that I loved, listened, relistened... thank you also for your lyrics always interesting, very well made, so deep, authentic, true and touching... They made me think a lot, especially when I was feeling down, broken inside, hearing some of your songs stopped the tears and dark painful ruminations, and it brought me back some courage to stand up again and get back my lost Furios, your songs belong to those great songs that are really helpful and uplifting, whether it be in hard times or in any period of life, I think I will love your songs forever, I am so grateful to you for offering them to the world :)
Je suis fan de vos chansons ร vie et je vous aime, honneur et longue vie ร Eiffel 65, un des meilleurs groupes au monde !!
Eiffel 65 for the win !! I love you forever โฅโฅโฅ

@abhilashpatel3036
It's a very auspicious song. It tells the feeling of a father or mentor towards its child or apprentice. He will teach lessons of life to the child until the child could stand on its own legs and ready to face the real world. All about passing on legacy.
