Come With Me
Technicolour Lyrics

The lyrics of Technicolour's "Come With Me" convey a sense of regret, acknowledging that despite the possibilities of what could have been, the past cannot be changed. The opening line "You and me stripped of all we ever could have been and all we could have seen" suggests a lost opportunity, perhaps a failed relationship or unfulfilled dreams. The refrain "Come with me to a place where we, we could dream out loud" is an invitation to escape from reality and imagine a better future, emphasizing the importance of holding onto hope.

The second verse urges the listener to cherish the present, with the line "you can grow to be old and maybe even wise but you can't grow young." The idea of not letting go and the continuation of "songs to be sung" emphasizes the importance of living life to the fullest and not taking any opportunities for granted. However, it's clear that this message comes from an understanding that life can be messy, messy enough for "no one stays clean." The explicit invocation of "dreaming out loud" emphasizes the fantasy-like nature of the song.

The repeated line "Come with me to a place where we, we could dream out loud" emphasizes the desire to escape reality and find solace in imagination as a way of dealing with the disappointments of the past. The final lines of "Hear us call, and see us fall on our knees and crawl" could be interpreted as a final attempt at a prayer for hope and guidance.
