C’mere
Interpol Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's way too late
To be this locked inside ourselves
The trouble is
That you're in love with someone else
It should be me
Oh, it should be me

Sacred parts
Your getaways
You come along
On summer days
Tenderly
Tastefully

And so may
We make time
Try and find somebody else
This place is mine

Set the date
You know exactly how I feel
I had my doubts, little girl
I'm in love with something real
It could be me
That's changing

And so may
We make time
To try and find somebody else
Who has aligned

Now seasoned with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long, ending fast

Oh, how I love you
Oh, in the evenings
When we are sleeping
We are sleeping
Oh, we are sleeping

And so may
We make time
We try and find somebody else
Who has aligned

Now seasoned with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile




Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long, oh, ending fast

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Interpol's song C'mere seem to center on unrequited love and the complexities that come with it. The opening lines of the song suggest a sense of entrapment within oneself and the struggle of wanting a love that cannot be reciprocated. "It's way too late to be this locked inside ourselves, the trouble is that you're in love with someone else. It should be me. Oh, it should be me." The singer seems to be struggling to come to terms with the reality that the person they love is in love with someone else. They feel like it should be them who is being loved instead.


The next few lines of the song describe moments together that are sacred, and how the singer feels about them. "Sacred parts, your getaways, you come along on summer days, tenderly, tastefully." The singer notes the moments they have shared with this person and how delicate and special they felt. However, they also acknowledge that these moments are fleeting, and they are not enough to make up for the unrequited feelings they have.


The chorus of the song focuses on the struggle to move on and find someone else. "It's so me, we make time, try to find somebody else, this place is mine." Here, the singer is resigned to the fact that they need to move on from their unrequited love and find someone else. They describe trying to make time to find someone new but ultimately feeling like they are trapped in their own mind.
