Repeat Caller
Max Leone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Took the backroads on the way down
Didn't wanna go home, so we stayed out
At a Chevron, buying scratch offs
Losing everything we paid, that's some bad odds
Motel pool, it's a hot day
Taking pictures of you posing in the hallway
In the backseat, it's a cold night
When you're rolling down the window, I just feel like

Ah, there must be something in the water
I feel like spending all my dollars on ya
And if you're feeling smaller
I'll come back like a repeat caller

But you know me, and I know you
In a couple months this all will just be old news
So let's make the front page
They'll read about us
Triple digits on the freeway

Ah, there must be something in the water
I feel like spending all my dollars on ya
And if you're feeling smaller
I'll come back like a repeat caller (brr)

I'm calling on ya
I'll come back like a repeat caller, ah, ah
I'm calling on ya
I'll come back like a repeat caller

The card decline
We dash and dine
These yellow traffic lights
We'll make a run for it
Park on the bluff with the volume up
Is it not enough?
There must be something in the water
I feel like spending all my dollars on ya
Standing three feet taller (standing, standing)
I'll come back like a repeat caller

Ah, there must be something in the water
I feel like spending all my dollars on ya
And if you're feeling smaller
I'll come back like a, ah
I'll come back like a

I'm calling on ya
I'll come back like a repeat caller, ah, ah
I'm calling on ya
I'll come back like a repeat caller

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Max Leone's song "Repeat Caller" depict a story of a spontaneous and carefree adventure between two individuals. The singer describes taking a detour on the backroads, choosing not to go home and instead staying out late. The scene evolves into them making impulsive decisions like buying scratch offs at a Chevron, even though the odds are against them. They find themselves at a motel pool on a hot day, capturing moments of joy and freedom through photographs. The imagery of a cold night in the backseat with the window down conveys a sense of exhilaration and liberation in the moment.


The recurring theme of “something in the water” suggests a feeling of being drawn to someone irresistibly, leading to a willingness to spend extravagantly and repeatedly return to them like a "repeat caller." Despite acknowledging that their connection may fade into old news after a few months, the singer desires to make the most of the present, aiming to create memories worth remembering and possibly making headlines along the way. The reference to “triple digits on the freeway” hints at the fast-paced nature of their relationship and the thrill of living in the moment.


The lyrics also touch upon moments of uncertainty and challenges, such as a card declining and having to dash and dine, symbolizing the highs and lows that come with spontaneous adventures. The mention of yellow traffic lights and making a run for it reflects a sense of urgency and risk-taking in their escapades. The singer’s determination to come back to the person despite setbacks conveys a sense of resilience and dedication that transcends material concerns.


The defiance of external limitations and societal norms is evident in lines like “Is it not enough?” and “Standing three feet taller,” suggesting a desire for freedom and pushing boundaries in their relationship. The repetition of the phrase “I'll come back like a repeat caller” reinforces the idea of persistence and enduring connection, even in the face of obstacles. Overall, the lyrics capture the essence of youthful spontaneity, fleeting moments of bliss, and the bittersweet realization of the transient nature of such experiences, all wrapped in a catchy and nostalgic melody.
