Stay There 'Til I Get There
Love's Midnight Call: A Journey Through Turbulent Emotions
Lyrics
The telephone's ringin' and it's three a.m.
The phone is ringing at 3 a.m.
And I know just who's callin'
The singer knows the caller.
From the same old spot and you're about half shot
The caller is at a familiar place and is intoxicated.
Almost to the point of crawlin'
The caller is almost to the point of collapsing.
Why is it everytime we have a little fuss you take your wounded pride
After a disagreement, the person goes to a bar to nurse wounded pride.
And you head right straight for a bar and a bottle
They seek solace in a bar and a bottle.
And try your best to crawl inside
Attempting to escape by immersing oneself in the bottle.
Please stay there 'til I get there and we'll work it out together
Request for the person to wait until the singer arrives to resolve the issue together.
We'll take a little walk and have a little talk
Suggesting a walk and a talk to improve the situation.
And you'll feel a whole lot better
Assurance that things will get better after discussing the matter.
Just when I wonder if you're really worth the trouble that you put me through
Expressing doubt about the worth of the relationship due to troubles.
Then you roll them baby blue eyes at me
The person's charm, represented by their blue eyes, makes it difficult to stay upset.
And jump like a kangaroo
Despite troubles, the person's reaction (jumping like a kangaroo) is endearing.
Stay there 'til I get there...
Reiteration of the request to stay until the singer arrives.
Well I thought about leavin' you many times
The singer has contemplated leaving multiple times.
And I've even packed my bags a few
Even packed bags, indicating a serious consideration of leaving.
Then the telephone rings and I can't do a thing
Unable to leave when the phone rings, feeling compelled to return.
But run right straight to you
The singer rushes to the caller when the phone rings.
Baby stay there 'til I get there...
Repetition of the request for the person to stay until the singer arrives.
Please stay there 'til I get there...
Final plea for the person to wait until the singer gets there.
