Call Me Back
Dora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I see you run
When I see you run

Coming out today
As I'm thinking about your face in the morning
Oh, I feel that I'm taking your heart away
When I see you
And I'm thinking about my hair through your fingers
Oh, I feel that you're ripping my heart apart

We share coffee on the weekends
Now I see you only in my dreams
It's something that'll never
Call me back and maybe we could say goodbye
When I see you run

When I see that you're running away (say goodbye)
Running away
Call me back and say goodbye
When I see you run
When I see that you're running away (goodbye)
Running away
Call me back and say good

Coming out today
And I'm thinking about the lies that you told me
Oh, I see you ain't going around with me
When I hear you
With all your boys that you ain't gonna miss me
Oh, I feel that you're ripping my heart apart

We share coffee on the weekends
Now I see you only in my dreams
It's something that'll never
Call me back and maybe we could say goodbye

When I see you run
When I see that you're running away (say goodbye)
Running away
Call me back and say goodbye
When I see you run
When I see that you're running away (goodbye)
Running away
Call me back and say good

When I see you run
When I see that you're running away
Running away
Call me back and say goodbye
When I see you run
When I see that you're running away (goodbye)
Running away
Call me back and say good

Coming out today
As I'm thinking about your face in the morning
Oh, I feel that I'm taking your heart away




When I see you
And I'm thinking about my hair through your fingers

Overall Meaning

In Dora's song "Call Me Back," the lyrics express the mixed emotions of a love that is ending or has already ended. The song revolves around the idea of "seeing" the person she is singing about, whether it be in real life or in her dreams. When she sees him run or hears him with his friends, she feels that he is tearing her heart apart. Despite this pain, she still holds on to the memories of their shared coffee on the weekends, but now can only see him in her dreams. She wishes for him to call her back so they can say goodbye properly.


The repetition of the phrase "when I see you run" is used to convey the idea of the person she loves running away from their relationship. It is a symbolic way of saying that he is running away from the love they shared, leaving her with a broken heart. The repetition of the phrase "say goodbye" is used to emphasize the finality of their relationship, that he has left her and is not coming back.


Overall, the song is a heart-wrenching portrayal of a love that is fading away, with the lyrics filled with raw emotion and pain. The track takes a simple yet powerful approach to songwriting, as the raw lyrics are accompanied by a soft melody that amplifies the emotional impact.
