Teenage Love Affair
Alicia Keys Lyrics

Uh, can't wait to get home
Excited to get home to call and speak with significant other

Baby, dial your number
Asking significant other to pick up phone

Can you pick up the phone?
Requesting significant other to answer phone call

'Cause I wanna holla
Desiring to speak to significant other

Daydreaming about you all day in school, can't concentrate
Thinking constantly about significant other

Wanna have your voice in my ear
Longing to hear significant other's voice

'Til mama comes and says it's too late
Continuing conversation until parent interrupts

'Cause the lights are on outside (outside)
Awareness of surroundings while talking on the phone

Wish there was somewhere to hide (to hide)
Desire to conceal state of being on phone call

I just don't want to say goodbye
Not wanting to end conversation with significant other

'Cause you are my baby, baby
Significant other is beloved and husbanded

Nothing really matters
Overriding focus on significant other

I don't really care
Lack of concern for outside opinions

What nobody tell me
Ignoring what others say or think

I'm gonna be here
Determined to stay committed to significant other

It's a matter of extreme importance
Significance of first teenage love affair

My first teenage love affair
Description of current romantic relationship being first at this age

Another secret meeting
Meeting with significant other in secret

On the fifth floor stair case
Place of secret meeting

I'm gonna give you this letter
Handing significant other a written confession

Of all the things I can't say
Writing down thoughts and feelings due to difficulty verbalizing them

Want you to be my first, my last, my ending and beginning, yeah
Uttering desire for significant other to be only and forever partner

I wrote your name in my book
Expressing love for significant other in written form

Your last name, my first
Fantasizing about future union with significant other

I'm your Mrs
Accepting role as significant other's future partner

Hey boy (what's up)
Addressing significant other playfully

You know I really like being with you?
Expressing fondness for significant other's company

Just hanging out with you is fun
Not needing extravagant outings to enjoy time with significant other

So, so maybe we can go to first base
Proposing advancement in physical relationship

Because I feel you (yeah)
Feeling significant connection with significant other

Second base (yeah)
Suggesting further progression in physical intimacy

Want you to feel me too
Desiring reciprocal feelings from significant other

Third base
Expressing readiness for intimacy

Better pump the breaks
Realizing the need for caution and restraint

Well baby, slow down
Encouraging restrained behavior

I gotta go home now
Signifying end of current interaction

My baby, baby
Endearing pet name for significant other
