Pick Up the Phone
Love's Second Chance: A Melodic Plea for Connection
Lyrics
Hey it's me again
Expressing a repeated attempt to contact someone.
I'm calling out of shame
Acknowledging a feeling of shame associated with a situation.
Shame that I couldn't play by
Regret for not following the conventional rules of a romantic relationship.
The rules of loving game
Referring to mistakes made in the context of love.
You were so pronto pronto
Describing the other person's quick or immediate response.
While I was more like oh no oh no
Highlighting a contrast in approach, expressing regret.
But now it's the past let me promise that
Acknowledging the past and making a commitment to change.
I will bell the kitty cat
Metaphorically expressing the intention to take action.
Pick up the phone
Making a direct request for the other person to answer the phone.
Don't make me wait for you here
Impatiently asking the person not to delay in responding.
Pick up the phone
Reiterating the request for a phone call and a desired response.
And tell me what I want to hear
Stressing the importance of hearing specific words.
Pick up the phone
Repeating the urgency of picking up the phone after a day of waiting.
I've been on the line whole day through
Emphasizing the persistence and dedication in waiting for a response.
So pick up the phone
Reiterating the request to answer the phone, indicating consequences if ignored.
Cause if you don't I will have to
Expressing a potential action if the call is not answered.
Hey it's me again
Repeating the identity and purpose of the caller.
I have left you message there
Indicating a previous attempt to communicate through a message.
By now I thought you'd hear it
Expecting the message to be received and the issue resolved.
And we can call it square
Suggesting closure or resolution if the person responds.
So if you are down just call me
Inviting the person to reach out for reconciliation.
And I will serenade
Offering to serenade with a familiar tune as a gesture of affection.
The tune you like so much (ouuu)
Highlighting a specific sound associated with a delayed call.
The sound of call delayed
Emphasizing the impact of a delayed response on the caller.
Pick up the phone
Reiterating the request to pick up the phone.
Don't make me wait for you here
Repeating the impatience and urgency for a timely response.
Pick up the phone
Insisting on hearing the desired words during the phone call.
And tell me what I want to hear
Emphasizing the emotional toll of waiting throughout the day.
Pick up the phone
Reiterating the persistence and commitment to waiting.
I've been on the line whole day through
Expressing the consequences of not responding to the call.
So pick up the phone
Repeating the plea to answer the phone and avoid the potential action.
Cause if you don't I will have to
Stating the caller's determination to call again if necessary.
Call again
Reiterating the intent to make another call.
So pick up the phone
Stressing the importance of picking up the phone to avoid being alone.
Don't leave me alone
Expressing the emotional impact of the unanswered call.
You hear the ring tone
Noting the sound of the ringing phone as a symbolic plea.
I just want you to reply to the unknown
Expressing a simple desire for a response, even from an unknown caller.
