Come Away With Me Lyrics
Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they cant tempt us
With their lies
I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows
knee-high
So wont you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And i'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away where they cant tempt us
With their lies
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows
knee-high
So wont you try to come
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And i'll never stop loving you
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me

I love this song, not only for its lyrics, but for its melodies and vocals. As for it's lyrics, I think its woman's way of telling her lover to mentally, emotionally, and maybe even physically escape from the world with her for the world always has it's expectations and criticisms. When left alone with love, the world is only a roaring wind, unable to touch them.
"Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And i'll never stop loving you"
Great lyrics. One of my favorites on this album.
This woman has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard. Ever. Anyway, I love the simplicity of the lyrics. I think they're pretty self-explanatory. I wonder if she is trying to pull her lover away amidst the chaos of everyday life, from the arguments and the petty disagreements to a place where they may love one another with no worries.
This song is one of my favorites. Basically, she's saying that she wants to be with him (whomever she's singing to) and she wants him to "come away with [her]".
norah jones has the most beautiful voice. her whole cd is great. its one of those cd's that you can play throughout without stopping. rock on girl~
this song is so beautiful and her voice makes it that much better
i love this song.... her voice is just so beautiful... it's says love all over. when you listen to it, you just want to be with someone you love. great cd.
Although... that might be because I identify with them so much.
I really identify with the lyrics and they make me think about love. This song is about wanting to be with someone you love, and asking them to "come away" with you.
a beautiful voice with beautiful soul. finally a singer with jazz and blues in her heart. a great song which just begs u to smile softly
