The band Reamonn began in 1990 in Freiburg, Germany with a classified advertisment from Rea in the paper. "Irish singer is looking for band for recording and tour". It didn't take long for Mike to contact Rea. He knew Sebi, who played in a band with Uwe. Uwe told Phil about the project they were doing and suddenly he was there too. Reamonn was born...
Reamonn is currently on hiatus, with vocalist Rea Garvey focusing on his solo career at the moment.
Come And Go
Reamonn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The unknown the endeavour to achieve sex
Walks into a room sees the naked stare
Feels the leering eyes eyes are everywhere
Thoughts that will consume every wanting fool
Thoughts that come to soon cheaper as a rule
Everything she feels suddenly concealed
Everyone who thought he was in control
Looking for cheap love this love is for fools
When she comes she comes and goes
Where she goes well no one knows
If you think you're in control well she took you for the treasure
When she comes she comes and goes
Where she goes well no one knows
If you think she's just your fool well you're paying for the pleasure of her love
All the wasted smiles nothing left to feel
All the lovers lies nothing here is real
All the times they thought they were in control
As she leaves the room nothing left but fools
When she comes she comes and goes
Where she goes well no one knows
If you think you're in control well you're paying for the pleasure
Everytime she comes everytime she runs
Everytime you feel something is concealed
Suddenly you know when she's letting go
Suddenly you sell well she does it for her pleasure
When she comes she comes and goes
Where she goes well no one knows
If you think you're in control well she took you for the treasure
Everytime she comes everytime she runs
Everytime you feel something is concealed
Suddenly you know, when she's letting go
Then you finally see well she does it for her pleasure
When she comes
The lyrics of Reamonn's song "Come and Go" seem to be about the experience of men who hire prostitutes. The song speaks of the fantasy, sexual desire, and intoxication that leads men to seek out prostitutes. The lyrics also describe the disillusionment and sense of loss that men experience after the encounter is over but "nothing left but fools."
The lyrics convey the message that men who seek sex outside of a loving relationship are foolish and ultimately unsatisfied. The song describes the prostitute as in control of the situation, taking advantage of the men who pay for her services. Men who delude themselves that they are in control are shown to be victims of their own desires and ultimately paying for the pleasure of someone who is uninterested in a genuine connection.
The lyrics of "Come and Go" are explicit and vivid, leaving little to the imagination. They speak to the dark, secretive, and often dangerous world of prostitution. The song, through its blunt language and message, serves as a warning to those considering hiring a prostitute.
