Lyrics

I'm dialing your number but you won't take my call

The speaker is trying to call someone, but the call is not being answered.

When I'm lonely I wonder if you think of my at all

The speaker wonders if they are being thought of when feeling lonely.


Say something, say something

An urging plea for the other person to communicate and express themselves.

I know we can work it out

Expressing confidence that the issues in the relationship can be resolved through communication.

Say something, say something

Reiteration of the plea for the other person to speak up and not remain silent.

I can't be the only one

The speaker feels a need for reciprocity, not wanting to be the only one making an effort.


Won't you stay a little longer with me?

Asking the person to prolong their presence in the speaker's life.

'Cause we ain't getting any younger, are we?

Highlighting the awareness of time passing and the desire to make the most of it.

And I won't give up on us

Commitment to not giving up on the relationship despite challenges.

Won't you stay a little longer with me?

A repetition of the request for the person to stay longer in the speaker's life.


I can't deal with the pressure so I turn off my phone

Unable to handle the stress, the speaker disconnects by turning off their phone.

If I can't have my treasure, I just wanna be alone

If the speaker cannot have what they value (treasure), they prefer solitude.


I should say something, say something (say something)

Expressing the need for the other person to say or express something.

I know we can work it out (we can work it out)

Reaffirming the belief that issues can be resolved through communication.

Say something, say something (uh yeah)

A continuation of the plea for the other person to speak up.

I can't be the only one

Reiterating the desire for mutual effort, not wanting to be the sole participant.


Won't you stay a little longer with me?

A repetition of the request for the person to stay longer, emphasizing the urgency.

'Cause we ain't getting any younger, are we?

Recognizing the passage of time and the need to cherish the moments together.

And I won't give up on us
