Call Me Up
Natalie Lyrics

Hi, this is Natalie
Natalie introduces herself on voicemail

Leave a message after the beep
Natalie prompts the caller to leave a message

And I'll give you a call back
Natalie promises to return the call

Remember if you don't leave a message
Natalie warns that without a message, she won't know who called

I don't know who called
Natalie emphasizes her need for a message to identify the caller

Thanks
Natalie expresses gratitude for the message

Message will be saved for fourteen days
Natalie informs the caller that the message will be stored for a limited time

I got your message today
Natalie acknowledges receiving the caller's message

I was happy to hear your voice
Natalie reveals that she enjoyed the caller's message

Automatically saved
Natalie explains that the message was recorded automatically

When it comes to you, I had no choice
Natalie suggests that the caller has a special hold on her

I must act like I don't wanna call you back
Natalie admits to playing hard to get and delaying her call back

I stayed up last night, waiting for the phone to flash
Natalie reveals that she's been eagerly anticipating the caller's call

What would it be like if I don't call so fast
Natalie considers delaying her response to the caller's message

Let a few hours past, see if my patience could last
Natalie contemplates waiting to see if the caller follows up before calling back

Every time you call me up I'm playing hard to get
Natalie acknowledges her tendency to act aloof and elusive

I really wanna pick up, I keep hitting end
Natalie admits to wanting to answer the call but letting it go to voicemail

I don't know what to say, you got me speechless
Natalie confesses to being at a loss for words when talking to the caller

Leave a message saved
Natalie suggests that a message is the best way for the caller to reach her

Maybe at a better time, when I can get online
Natalie proposes a more convenient time to connect with the caller

And tell you what's on my mind
Natalie hints at having something important to share with the caller

And then we can conversate, maybe we can conversate
Natalie suggests having a more meaningful conversation with the caller

Baby, I know you might think I'm just playin'
Natalie acknowledges that the caller may not take her seriously

You don't see the smile I get, baby
Natalie implies that she's happy to hear from the caller

When the phone rings, you call me
Natalie notes the irony of the caller calling her while asking her to call back

I really wish you would come and hold me
Natalie expresses her desire for physical intimacy with the caller

Now it ain't my style to have you guess how I feel about you
Natalie asserts that she wants to be upfront about her feelings for the caller

I'm always thinking about you, I'm always talking about you
Natalie reveals the extent of her feelings for the caller

Don't wanna let you know I have the words
Natalie suggests that she's hesitant to express her emotions explicitly

I end up all jittery
Natalie admits to feeling nervous and excited around the caller

And all the words I can't control what you do to me
Natalie attributes her inability to express her feelings to the caller's effect on her

All it takes is one little thing
Natalie implies that the caller has a significant impact on her emotions

I hear a ring, I see your name
Natalie admits to being immediately affected by the caller's attempts to reach her

Here's how I'm gonna tell you
Natalie reveals her plan for communicating with the caller

I'm gonna call you up tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Natalie plans to call the caller back later that night

Be up-tight and honest with you
Natalie promises to be straightforward and truthful with the caller

No more holding back or acting shy
Natalie asserts that she will no longer be hesitant to express her feelings to the caller

Let you know you're the one I like
Natalie implies that she will confess her attraction to the caller
