Dial My Number
Romano Bais Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're a pretender, impossible mission to keep in touch
Hard to remember moments together, a-ha
My love is tender, even if you're far away tonight
Why not surrender, passion is burning

I'm loving you on the telephone
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Communication is set tonight
Please operator, don't drop the line
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Future connection is right on time

Maybe tomorrow we'll have a synchronised rendezvous
Darling I want you, over and over, a-ha
My love is tender, even if you're far away tonight
Why not surrender, passion is burning

I'm loving you on the telephone
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Communication is set tonight
Please operator, don't drop the line




Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Future connection is right on time

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Romano Bais's "Dial My Number" suggest a long-distance relationship where the couple struggles to keep in touch. The first verse reveals that the singer's significant other is a "pretender" and impossible to keep in touch with. The singer finds it difficult to remember moments they had together. However, he still loves her tenderly and urges her to surrender to the passion between them.


The chorus expresses the singer's desire to connect with his beloved through the telephone. He sees the telephone as the only way to revive the connection between them since they are far apart. He pleads with the operator not to drop the line because communication is essential to him. The last verse suggests hope for the future - maybe tomorrow they will meet up and rekindle their love.

Dial My Number is truly a highlight in Italo Disco. There is something perfect about it! The song captures the essence of the 80s, sound and style, with unquestionable precision. The song is a product of its time, but also timeless... It is a treat!
Of course, great sax never hurts ;)

@hotjazzbaby

Yes. There’s also a long version and a live version of this track!
