Instructions for how to access voicemail on a phone system

First saved message. message sent yesterday at 10:41 pm.
The details of the voicemail, including the time and date it was sent

Ha
An exclamation to express a mixture of surprise and amusement

I gotta tell ya
The artist has something important to say

I'll make it better
The singer is committed to improving a situation

But I know there's somethin' I needed to say
The singer has a nagging feeling that there was something they forgot to mention

When I was out, though
The artist was absent from a previous situation

Maybe you were better alone
The artist wonders if the recipient was happier without them

I know I'll make it home
The artist is confident that they will return to their destination

She told me sweet thang
The singer is recalling a conversation with a woman who called them "sweet thang"

Run a labour
The woman wants the artist to make an effort for her

In your shoes
The singer is being empathetic towards the woman

Touch me til I follow in love
The woman wants the singer to be affectionate with her

I wanna help her
The singer wants to assist the woman

Maybe we were better alone
The artist wonders if they and the woman are better off without each other

I wanna show you how
The artist wants to demonstrate an ability or skill to the woman

And then we walked out
The singer and the woman left a location together

Make it made now
The singer wants to achieve success or accomplish a goal with the woman

I said I want it but I never alone
The artist desires companionship

I wanna show you
The artist wants to demonstrate something to the woman

Maybe we were somethin' uncool
The artist is reflecting on a past relationship which may have been viewed negatively

I wanna make you sing
The singer is confident they can bring joy and happiness to the woman

Uh uh oh
An expression of excitement, possibly in anticipation of the artist's plans with the woman
