Lyrics
No New Year's Day to celebrate
No special occasion like New Year's Day to rejoice
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No tokens of affection like chocolate hearts to offer
No first of spring
No symbolic start of a new season (spring)
No song to sing
No inspiration for a song
In fact here's just another ordinary day
Today is just an ordinary, unremarkable day
No April rain
No rain typical of April
No flowers bloom
No blooming flowers as in a usual springtime
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
No weddings, especially in the traditional wedding month of June
But what it is, is something true
Yet, what exists is genuine and sincere
Made up of these three words that I must say to you
Expressing love with three simple words: "I love you"
I just called to say I love you
The purpose of the call is to declare love
I just called to say how much I care
To express how deeply caring the caller is
I just called to say I love you
Reiteration of the declaration of love
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Emphasizing the sincerity of the love expressed
No summer's high
No soaring happiness associated with summer
No warm July
No warmth usually felt in July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No romantic moonlight in August
No autumn breeze
No refreshing autumn breeze
No falling leaves
No picturesque falling leaves of autumn
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No time for birds to migrate, as the season hasn’t arrived
No Libra sun
No mention of Libra, symbolizing balance and harmony
No Halloween
No celebration of Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
No direct gratitude expressed for the joy brought during Christmas
But what it is, though old so new
Despite being an old sentiment, it feels refreshingly new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do
These three words carry a depth of emotion that fills the heart
I just called to say I love you
Reiteration of the purpose: expressing love
I just called to say how much I care, I do
To reassert the depth of care felt by the caller
I just called to say I love you
Another reaffirmation of the declaration of love
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Reemphasizing the genuine nature of the love expressed
I just called to say I love you
Once again, expressing love through a simple call
I just called to say how much I care, I do
To stress the depth of care felt by the caller
I just called to say I love you
Reiterating the purpose of the call: declaring love
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart, of my heart
Stressing the sincerity and depth of the love expressed
I just called to say I love you
Another declaration of love
I just called to say how much I care, I do
Reaffirming the depth of care felt by the caller
I just called to say I love you
Once again, expressing love through a simple call
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart, baby of my heart
Emphasizing the depth and sincerity of the expressed love
