Lyrics
I wanna call you up
The desire to contact someone.
When I'm feeling low
When experiencing emotional down moments.
When I'm not with you
During times of separation from the person.
That's the only time I feel alone
Feeling lonely only in the absence of that person.
Yeah your love's a drug
Describing the intensity of the person's love.
So I keep it close
Keeping the affectionate feelings nearby.
I don't even think
Not contemplating the consequences.
I'd mind the overdose
Not bothered by the possibility of excessive attachment.
I wanna call you up
Reiterating the desire to reach out.
When I'm feeling low
During moments of emotional distress.
When I'm not with you
When separated from the person.
That's the only time I feel alone
Feeling isolated solely in the absence of that person.
Yeah your love's a drug
Comparing the person's love to a powerful drug.
So I keep it close
Keeping the strong emotional connection close.
I don't even think
Not considering the possibility of excessive emotional attachment.
I'd mind the overdose
Unconcerned about the potential for overdose metaphorically.
Yeah I can't help it if I'm selfish
Admitting a sense of self-centeredness.
Girl I promise I try
Expressing an attempt to change.
I can't blame if you leave me
Understanding if the person leaves due to past actions.
Yeah it ain't the first time
Recognizing previous occurrences of a similar situation.
And I can't blame you if you're mad
Acknowledging the validity of the person's potential anger.
Because you know that I lied
Admitting to dishonesty in the relationship.
And I can't take back all the things
Unable to undo the past actions that caused pain.
And all the nights that you cried
Referring to the emotional distress caused during past moments.
Yeah I can't help it if I'm selfish
Reiterating a sense of self-centeredness.
Girl I promise I try
Expressing an attempt to change for the person.
I can't blame if you leave me
Understanding if the person leaves due to past actions.
Yeah it ain't the first time
Recognizing previous occurrences of a similar situation.
And I can't blame you if you're mad
Acknowledging the validity of the person's potential anger.
Because you know that I lied
Admitting to dishonesty in the relationship.
And I can't take back all the things
Unable to undo the past actions that caused pain.
And all the nights that you cried
Referring to the emotional distress caused during past moments.
I wanna call you up
Reiterating the desire to contact someone.
When I'm feeling low
During moments of emotional distress.
When I'm not with you
When separated from the person.
That's the only time I feel alone
Feeling isolated solely in the absence of that person.
Yeah your love's a drug
Comparing the person's love to a powerful drug.
So I keep it close
Keeping the strong emotional connection close.
I don't even think
Not considering the possibility of excessive emotional attachment.
I'd mind the overdose
Unconcerned about the potential for overdose metaphorically.
I wanna call you up
Reiterating the desire to reach out.
When I'm feeling low
During moments of emotional distress.
When I'm not with you
When separated from the person.
That's the only time I feel alone
Feeling isolated solely in the absence of that person.
Yeah your love's a drug
Comparing the person's love to a powerful drug.
So I keep it close
Keeping the strong emotional connection close.
I don't even think
Not considering the possibility of excessive emotional attachment.
I'd mind the overdose
Unconcerned about the potential for overdose metaphorically.
