Come As You Were
T Graham Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With Champaign and pink party lights
I hope you'll attend if you're free
Come as you were before you stopped loving me
The party is BYOM
So bring your old love you once felt
Don't bother to RSVP no
If you're sorry that you've hurt me and you've seen the light
Do me a party favor girl and love me tonight
My party could be so much fun
If only you'd just say you'd come
If here's where you want to be
Just come as you were before you stopped loving me

If here's where you want to be

Come as you were before you stopped loving me
The song "Come As You Were" by T Graham Brown is a heartbreakingly hopeful invitation to an ex-lover to come back and rekindle their past relationship. The lyrics convey a sense of nostalgia and longing for a happier time when the love was still present. The singer of the song is hosting a party and is hoping that the ex-lover will attend. The party is described as having "Champaign and pink party lights" and is open to anyone who wants to come.
The pivotal line in the song is "Come as you were before you stopped loving me" which is an invitation for the ex-lover to come back to the state they were in before the love faded away. The singer is asking their ex-lover to bring back the love they once had for them and not to RSVP, just to show up. The singer acknowledges that the love has stopped, but asks that the ex-lover consider coming back because they might be sorry they hurt them and have "seen the light".
The song has a sense of melancholy, but it is also an invitation to move forward and try again. The party could be fun if the ex-lover showed up and they could rekindle their love. The singer is hoping that the ex-lover will choose to come back to them and be with them in the place where they truly want to be.

My wife asked - "At 00:07 what's that 'note'?" - Well, honey it's the #5 of the dominant V CHORD - C7#5 - - - (It's the NOTE G# or Ab, depending on your point of view!)...! Soooo nice, AND bluesy! I'm always on the lookout for 'chords' that sound bluesy, this is an excellent example!
