Call Me Maybe
Tiffany Alvord Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
I looked to you as it fell,
And now you're in my way
I trade my soul for a wish,
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn't looking for this,
Your stare was holdin',
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
It's hard to look right,
At you baby,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
And all the other boys,
Try to chase me,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
But still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
But it's in my way
Your stare was holdin',
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
It's hard to look right,
At you baby,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
And all the other boys,
Try to chase me,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
Oh whoa ohohoh
It's hard to look right,
At you baby,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,
And this is crazy,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
And all the other boys,
Try to chase me,
But here's my number,
So call me, maybe?
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so so bad
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
So call me, maybe?
The lyrics to Tiffany Alvord's cover of "Call Me Maybe" describe the singer's strong attraction towards someone they just met. The singer throws a wish into a well and looks towards the person they are interested in for guidance or signs from the universe. The singer then trades their soul for a wish and insignificant amounts of money for a kiss. They never expected to develop feelings for this person, but now they are in their life and "in their way."
The singer describes the way the object of their affection was dressed when they first met, mentioning ripped jeans and exposed skin. The singer is clearly drawn to this person and wants to know where they are going. They then bravely give the person their number and ask them to call. The singer also acknowledges the attention they receive from other boys, but still wants the person they just met to call them.
The chorus of the song repeats as the singer confesses their strong attraction, saying they missed the person "so bad" before they came into their life. The song ends with the singer pleading for the person to call them. Overall, the lyrics are playful and take a lighthearted approach to new relationships.

I threw a wish in the well,
I made a secret wish and threw it into the well.
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
I won't reveal my wish to anyone.
I looked to you as it fell,
As I threw my wish into the well, I looked in your direction.
And now you're in my way
Now that I have met you, I can't stop thinking about you.
I trade my soul for a wish,
I would do anything to make my wish come true.
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
To achieve my goal, I am willing to give everything I have, even if it's just a small kiss.
I wasn't looking for this,
I never thought I would meet someone like you.
But now you're in my way
But now that you're here, I can't stop thinking about you.
Your stare was holdin',
I couldn't help but feel like you were staring right back at me.
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Your casual outfit was alluring because it revealed your skin.
Hot night, wind was blowin'
The weather was hot and windy, which added to the intense feelings I had when I met you.
Where you think you're going, baby?
I find you so attractive that I can't help but want to know where you are heading.
Hey, I just met you,
I just met you.
And this is crazy,
I know it's sudden and unexpected.
But here's my number,
Here's my number, in hopes that you'll call me back.
So call me, maybe?
It's up to you to decide if you want to call me.
It's hard to look right,
It's difficult to maintain eye contact with you.
At you baby,
When I look at you.
And all the other boys,
Despite the attention I receive from other boys.
Try to chase me,
Other boys try to pursue me.
But here's my number,
Despite that, I'm still giving you my number.
Before you came into my life
Before I met you.
I missed you so bad
I didn't know what I was missing until I met you.
And you should know that
I want you to understand how important you are to me.
Oh whoa ohohoh
The emotions I feel are intense, almost overwhelming.

I'm an Austrian girl and I really like your voice. My best friend and I are the best singers in class but we wouldn't sing like you in our life. So please don't stop singing. I like hearing your voice
