Lyrics
Oh, oh, oh, ah, yeah
Expressing emotions (excitement, affirmation)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ah, oh, oh
Continuation of emotional expression
I was number one for a while
Previously held the primary place or importance
Then you left me for her and it broke my heart
Experienced heartbreak after being left for someone else
Now you say, you think you want me back but you don't know
Uncertainty about the sincerity of wanting reconciliation
You'll never change your ways
Doubt regarding the possibility of changing behavior
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Pondering about the decision of choosing between options
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Reiterating the question of choice between alternatives
Oh oh, is it gonna be me?
Questioning if the speaker will be the chosen one
When you called me up last night and made me smile
Recalling a recent moment of happiness caused by the person
It was the first time in months that I heard from you
Notable absence of communication for an extended period
Tell me what you want from me now
Request for clarification about intentions or desires
Is it my turn in line or just a passing thought
Questioning if attention is genuine or momentary
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Repetition of questioning the decision-making process
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Continued uncertainty about the choice between options
Oh oh, is it gonna be me?
Hopeful inquiry about being the preferred choice
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Repetition emphasizing the unresolved decision
Oh oh, who's it gonna be?
Continued emphasis on the unresolved decision
Oh oh, ooh oh, who's it gonna be?
Intensifying the query about the impending choice
This time I won't expect too much
Lowering expectations due to past disappointments
Because I know at any time you might go back to her
Awareness of the possibility of returning to the previous partner
While you're here with me, with all my ability I'm gonna love ya
Commitment to loving despite uncertain circumstances
'Cause next time it might be her
Concern about potentially being replaced again
Oh oh, this time, who's it gonna be?
Reiteration of uncertainty about the forthcoming decision
Oh oh, this time, who's it gonna be?
Continued uncertainty about the upcoming choice
Oh oh, this time, is it gonna be me?
Hopeful inquiry about being chosen this time
Oh oh, ooh ooh, who's it gonna be?
Repeating the question of who will be chosen
This time, is it gonna be me, who's it gonna be?
Reaffirming the query about the decision-maker
Is it gonna be me, who's it gonna be, it's gotta be
Emphasizing the necessity of making a decision
