Baby Come To Me
George Cole Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come fly with me, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly away

Come fly with me
Let's float down to Peru
In lava land there's a one man band

He'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me
Let's take off in the blue

Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
I will just glide starry-eyed
I'll get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
Oh, you may hear angels cheer
'Cause we're together

Weather wise it's such a lovely day
Just say the words and we'll
Beat the birds down to Acapulco Bay
It's perfect for a flying honeymoon
Come fly with me, come on let's fly away

Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
Oh, we'll just glide starry-eyed
I'll get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
Oh ya you might hear angels cheer
'Cause we're together

Weather-wise it's such a lovely day
I'll say the words and we'll
Beat the birds to Acapulco Bay
It's perfect for a flying honeymoon
So come fly with me, come fly with me

Come on come on come on let's fly away
Let's fly away...

Line by Line Meaning

Come fly with me, let's fly away
Let's travel to far off lands together and have an adventure

If you can use some exotic booze
If you want to have a good time and try new things

There's bar in far Bombay
We can go to a bar in Bombay to have a fun time

Let's float down to Peru
Let's go to Peru and enjoy the scenery

In lava land there's a one man band
There's a musician in the volcanic region of Peru who can play music for us

He'll toot his flute for you
He'll play a flute song for you

Let's take off in the blue
Let's fly in the sky

Once I get you up there
When we're high up in the sky

Where the air is rarefied
Where the air is thin and of high altitude

I will just glide starry-eyed
We'll glide through the air, feeling awe-inspired

I'll be holding you so near
I'll hold you close as we fly
