Come With Me
The Perry's Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A starry summer sky,
A laughing you and I, alone.
It all comes back to me now,
A sea of midnight blue,
Your face uplifted to my own.
We called it a thrill of the moment,
We didn't know what the glow meant,
We never dreamed it might be love.
It all comes back to me now,
The love I threw away,
And now each lonely night I pray,
That it will all come back to me someday.
The Perry's song Come with Me is a ballad with a nostalgic touch. The lyrics focus on memories of a past romantic relationship that ended prematurely. The first stanza describes a peaceful moment shared by the singer and the person they once loved. The second stanza details how the couple accepted their feelings towards each other as something fleeting and not real, but in the end, it was love, and the decision to let it go is now a regret.
The use of the past tense in the lyrics highlights the fact that the romance has already ended. The feeling of loneliness and loneliness is palpable throughout the song. The singer wishes they could turn back the clock and relive the moment when they let go of the love they didn't know they had. The use of metaphors for the night sky and the sea of blue represents the feeling of infinity and vastness that comes with an opportunity to love freely. The sentimentality present in the lyrics is expected to resonate with people who have been in a similar situation, where they let go of something good without realising the value.

It all comes back to me now
I am remembering everything that happened in the past.
A starry summer sky
The night sky was full of stars during our past encounter.
A laughing you and I, alone.
We shared a fun moment together with just the two of us.
A sea of midnight blue,
The surroundings were dark blue and calming.
Your face uplifted to my own.
You looked up at me and I saw the beauty in your face.
We called it a thrill of the moment,
At that time, we considered our encounter as an exciting experience.
And blamed the moon up above,
We thought that the moon's existence influenced our emotions.
We didn't know what the glow meant,
We were both unaware of the strong feeling we had towards each other.
We never dreamed it might be love.
We never thought that our encounter might turn into a romantic relationship.
The love I threw away,
The affection that I disregarded in the past.
And now each lonely night I pray,
I am currently alone and hoping for a chance to rekindle what I let go.
That it will all come back to me someday.
I am waiting for the possibility of reliving the moment we had and to finally realize that it was true love.
