Let's Get Together
The Glitter Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All you need is here to stay
Let's get together again
Forget about your yesterdays
Let's get together again
All you need is here to stay
Let's get together again
Forget about your yesterdays
I hope you'll write and say you're fine; did you ever sit and dream
Of a time when we could meet again?
It's very hard now you're not mine
The phone's right next to you, and you know just what to do
Just pick it up and call my name
Let's get together again
All you need is here to stay
Tomorrow's just a step away till I come running back to you
I hope you'll stay here by my side; I thought I'd never see
My angel back here next to me. Promise me that you won't hide
The phone's right next to you, and you know just what to do
Let's get together again
All you need is here to stay
And you know there ain't much time; I'm so alone, please come home
I'm on my own; let's get together again
All you need is here to stay
The Glitter Band's "Let's Get Together Again" is a song about reuniting with a lost love. The lyrics convey the longing for rekindling the relationship, as well as the fear and uncertainty of whether or not the other person shares the same feelings. The chorus repeats the desire to "get together again" and emphasizes that "all you need is here to stay," meaning that everything necessary for the relationship to work is still present. The lyrics suggest that the two have been separated for a long time, but now the singer is ready to put the past behind and start anew.
The verses touch on the nostalgia of the past relationship, with lyrics like "Did you ever sit and dream of a time when we could meet again?" and "Tomorrow's just a step away till I come running back to you." The singer is hopeful for a second chance with their lost love, and encourages them to reach out by saying "Just pick it up and call my name." The song's bridge reveals the urgency of the situation, as the singer declares "And you know there ain't much time; I'm so alone, please come home. I'm on my own; let's get together again. All you need is here to stay." The song ends on a hopeful note, with the repetition of the chorus and the assurance that they can make it work if they try.

Wow, I was 12, it feels like yesterday. I hope the kids of today listen to the innocence of this, This is a classic for a 60's child.
