The Call Lyrics

Let me tell you the story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in mysery
I was about to go home and there she was standing in front of me
Said 'Hi, I got a little place nearby
Wanna go?', I should have said 'No'
Someone's waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know we're goin to a place nearby
I gotta go

Now two years gone, nothing's been won
I can't take it back what's done is done
One of her friends found out
That she wasn't my only one
And it eats me from inside, that she's not by my side
Just because I made that call and lied

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know we're goin to a place nearby
I gotta go

[Break with repetitive "Baby baby I'm sorry, and "Hello?"]

Let me tell you the story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in mysery
I was about to go home and there she was standing in front of me
Said I, I got a little place nearby
Gotta go

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know we're goin to a place nearby
Gotta go

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know we're goin to a place nearby
We're goin to a place nearby
Gotta go

Well... I'm taking a wild guess and say that this song is about cheating. He's at the bar and some girl gets to him... tells him she's got a place nearby, he's thinking of not going, ends up caving in and takes her up on her offer. He calls up his girl, tells her he'll be later, but in the end, he leaves with the girl. Later on, one of his girl friend finds out about the other girl... I don't know if HIS girl finds out about the other, but I know that he regrets doing what he did, but like it's said

"Now till it's done nothing's been won I can't take it back what's done is done"

Think twice before you cheat. The clear message that I get from this song... You know it's easy to pick up the phone break up with the person and THAN sleep with the other!
