Lyrics
When are you coming home?
Expressing anticipation and longing for the person to return home.
I love it when you call me on the phone
Expressing joy and affection when the person calls on the phone.
Say you won't be long
Requesting assurance that the absence won't be prolonged.
You could never do anything wrong
Affirmation of trust and belief in the person's moral integrity.
I was made of stone
Metaphorical reference, suggesting emotional resilience or detachment.
It's like you're the only man I've ever known
Highlighting the significance of the person as a central figure in the speaker's life.
You're taking me along
Feeling accompanied and included by the person's actions or presence.
I love it when I feel like I belong
Expressing happiness and a sense of belonging in the relationship.
Love it when you call me on my day off
Expressing enjoyment when the person contacts the speaker on their day off.
Asking me to come around
Invitation or request to spend time together.
Love it when you ask me to come down
Reiteration of joy in being asked to come over.
Love it when you tell me to be selfish
Positive encouragement to prioritize one's own needs and desires.
Like I could be any more
Sarcasm or playfulness, suggesting the impossibility of being more selfish.
Love it when you're knocking on my door
Expressing appreciation when the person seeks connection by knocking on the door.
My mama and my dad
Reference to the speaker's parents advising contentment with available resources.
Told me to make do with what I had
Conveying a lesson received from parents about making the best of the current situation.
But all I have is you
Expressing dependency and emotional connection to the person.
I'm hoping what they're saying isn't true
Expressing uncertainty about the truthfulness of parental advice in the context of the relationship.
But you know that its not
Denial of the doubts expressed in the previous line.
You always remind me what I got
Recognition and appreciation of the positive influence the person has on the speaker's perspective.
And I think I have enough
Contentment with the current state of the relationship or life in general.
Oh, I finally have enough
Emphasis on having finally achieved a satisfying level of contentment.
Love it when you call me on my day off
Repetition of the enjoyment when the person contacts the speaker on their day off.
Asking me to come around
Reiteration of the invitation or request to spend time together.
Love it when you ask me to come down
Reiteration of joy in being asked to come over.
Love it when you tell me to be selfish
Reiteration of positive encouragement to prioritize one's own needs and desires.
Like I could be any more
Repetition of sarcasm or playfulness regarding the impossibility of being more selfish.
Love it when you're knocking on my door
Reiteration of appreciation when the person seeks connection by knocking on the door.
