Lyrics
When the day
Expressing the beginning of a challenging day.
Is starting badly
Describing a rough start to the day.
Small disasters in a medley
Referring to various small troubles happening simultaneously.
I hear the phone ring
Noticing the phone ringing amid the chaos.
And I know it will be fine
Expressing optimism that things will improve upon answering the phone.
When the world
Describing a world in turmoil.
Around is crumbling
Depicting a worsening environment with dark clouds and thunder.
Clouds are blackening and rumbling
Choosing to let the phone ring despite the external chaos.
I let my phone ring
Highlighting the importance of the caller, the speaker's baby.
My baby's on the line
Finding reassurance and comfort in the voice of the loved one.
And I don't know if she's a fairy
Expressing uncertainty about the partner's nature (fairy or witch).
And I don't know if she's a witch
Reiterating the ambiguity of the partner's identity.
But I'm sure there is some magic
Believing in the magical quality of the partner's actions.
In the way she gives a kiss
Highlighting the enchanting effect of the partner's kisses.
When my head is calling May Day
Describing a moment of distress and seeking help.
And I'm feeling on the brink
Feeling on the edge of a crisis.
She can save me from disaster
Believing that the partner can rescue from impending disaster.

Of crisis doubles
Expressing a situation of intensified trouble.
And I'm stuck in some real trouble
Choosing to let the phone ring to dispel panic.
I let me phone ring and the panic will be gone
Believing in the calming effect of the partner's voice.
If I'm lost beyond redemption
Describing a state of being lost beyond redemption.
Like some telepathic tension
Highlighting a connection between the speaker and the partner.
She lets the phone ring
Letting the phone ring as a response to tension.
And tells me it will be fine
