Time For Me
Mario Frangoulis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for all those high-tone places
Marlon Brando is not her style
Not even Pavarotti's smile
Something she can't see
Is something she can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for furs and laces
My baby don't care for all those high-tone places

Liz Taylor is not her style
Not even Liberace's smile
Something she can't see
Is something she can't see
I wonder what is wrong with baby

My baby just cares for

My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for me

Overall Meaning

In "Time For Me," Mario Frangoulis sings about a love interest who is not driven by material possessions or societal status. The lyrics convey that the person he is in love with, referred to as "my baby," is not interested in shows or extravagant clothes. This individual finds value in the simple things and focuses on the genuine connection between them. The lyrics suggest that their love is not built on superficiality or external displays of wealth.


The song continues to emphasize that his love interest doesn't care for cars, races, or high-class establishments. They are not swayed by appearances or the societal pressure to engage in extravagant activities. Marlon Brando and Pavarotti, iconic individuals known for their talent and success, hold no allure for this person. Their lack of interest in such high-profile figures implies that they prioritize more meaningful qualities and relationships over fame or recognition.


As the song progresses, it becomes evident that the person Frangoulis sings about is unique in their disregard for conventions. They neither seek nor desire the approval or recognition of others. The lyrics imply that this person does not feel the need to broadcast or showcase their love for Frangoulis or anyone else. Their genuine connection is valued by this individual without seeking validation from the world around them.


In the final part of the lyrics, Frangoulis expresses some confusion or curiosity about what might be "wrong" with his love interest. However, instead of dwelling on this issue, he concludes the song with a reaffirmation of the fact that his baby just cares for him. The repeated refrain of "my baby just cares for me" highlights the simplicity and strength of their connection, ultimately suggesting that this love is built on genuine affection and mutual understanding.
