Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh
Mmm mm mm
Mm yeah
Uh, mm, yeah

I just touched down
Quarter after two
I know it's late
I'm calling you
Tryin' to figure if I
Can come see you
(Can I come see you?)

I know you're asleep
But you're on my mind
I'm wide awake
And I want to stop by
So you can get up
And get out of the bed
'cause I want to see you
And I been wondering....

[Chorus: x 2]
Can I come over?
Can I (come over)
Stop by (come over)
To see you (come over)
Tonight (can I come over?)
Can I (come over)
Get wit' ya (come over)
I just want to (come over)
Be wit' ya babe

What the deal?
I'm not that far
I just got my bags
And I'm headed to the car
Say yes or no
'cause I'm on the road
(Wait a minute, my battery's low.. alright)

Baby I want to come see you
Said I really want to come see you
Don't you worry about a thing
I'm just wantin' to hold you
Praise you, I want to guide you, tell you
How much I love you, I need you, I miss you

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh oh, oh, ooh ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh oh, oh, ooh ooh





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The song "Come Over" by Changing Faces is a slow jam that was released in 1997. The song tells the story of a lover who is trying to convince their partner to let them come over late at night. We can see from the beginning that the lover is trying to get the attention of their partner by calling them in the late hours of the night. The lover is aware that their partner is asleep, but they feel that they have strong feelings that they need to express.


The chorus repeatedly asks the lover's partner if they can come over, emphasizing that they want to spend time with them. The lover tells their partner that they are not too far away and that they have just packed their bags, and is therefore committed to spending quality time with them. The emotional depth and vulnerability of the song is evident, as the lover is clear about the fact that they miss and need their partner.


Overall, the song comes across as a soothing ballad with a very mellow and romantic tone. It tells the story of a couple that is trying to rebuild their relationship and perhaps wanting to start anew. It is a very relatable song that speaks to the listener on an emotional level while representing the classic R&B sound that was popular during the time it was released.
