Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yea yea, yea yea,
Alright,
Hmm,
Verse 1
Ain't nothing like being alone
Coming home alone
Sometimes it feels like... (I got it all wrong)
The chances I've had before
Like one or too many more
Didn't treat em right (and now they're all gone)
Bridge
If I had one chance again
To give another my last name
This one I'll love and hold
Right until we get old
I'll pledge my life with vows
(And) take the blame for all the rows (yeah)
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
Chorus
My bed's so cold
I'm all alone
I'm sitting here all by my own
All that I ask is
I'm given one more chance
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
My bed's so cold
I'm all alone
I'm sitting here all by my own
All that I ask is
I'm given one more chance
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
Verse ii
Some body please help me and give cupid a call
Go tell em that I need love right here in my home
Cos I messed up in the past (this I know)
But I can't sleep in the bed if it ain't warm
Bridge
If I had one chance again
To give another my last name
This one I'll love and hold
Right until we get old
I'll pledge my life with vows
(And) take the blame for all the rows (yeah)
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
Chorus
My bed's so cold
I'm all alone
I'm sitting here all by my own
All that I ask is
I'm given one more chance
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
My bed's so cold
I'm all alone
I'm sitting here all by my own
All that I ask is
I'm given one more chance
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
Bridge ii
When I cook a meal
I eat alone
Coming home from work to be on my own
Right up in the bed I'll be
I'll be on my own
Just call cupid
Hey
Tell em to send someone to me
Chorus
My bed's so cold
I'm all alone
I'm sitting here all by my own
All that I ask is
I'm given one more chance
Cos I ain't good at being on my own
Chorus x3 till fade...
The song "Call Cupid" by Kay B revolves around the theme of loneliness and the desire for a companion. The lyrics describe the feeling of being alone at home, feeling as if everything is wrong and regretting the missed chances of finding a love partner. The first verse talks about how the singer failed in his previous relationships, leading to his isolation. The bridge yearns for another chance to fall in love and stick to a partner, accepting every challenge that comes with it. The chorus highlights the desperation to find someone to share his life with and stresses how being alone is not the singer's forte.
The second verse pleads for the intervention of the mythical god of love, Cupid, to help find a partner. The bridge of the second verse is similar to the first one, acknowledging the singer's inadequacies in being alone and the desire to commit to a partner. The song ends with the chorus repeated thrice till fade. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability, fear of being alone, and the desire to settle with someone who will help the singer overcome his loneliness.
