Well, I'm just a fool for you
And I think I'm going crazy
I can't control myself or contain my thoughts
It's eating me up inside
Now I see everything a little more clearly
The bad outweighs the good things
Was this ever a good thing for me?
Was this ever a good thing for me?

You're just a phone call away
Every day you seem further away
(You're just a phone call away)
I do my best to throw my pride aside and apologize
Cut myself down a notch
(Every day you seem further away)
And I know I said some things that hurt
Through ninety-seven missed calls
I'll finally get over you

All I, all I really wanted was a good job
A nine-to-five never seemed to cut it
Was too wrapped up in her to be working like that
Soon you'll see that everything will work out for me
So keep your promises you promised to me

You're just a phone call away
Every day you seem further away
(You're just a phone call away)
I do my best to throw my pride aside and apologize
Cut myself down a notch
(Every day you seem further away)
And I know I said some things that hurt
Through ninety-seven missed calls
I'll finally get over you

You're taking me places I've never been
You're feeling me out
And I'm filling you in
What's more important than saving yourself
From letting me in?
What's more important?
What's more important?
What's more important?
Saving yourself from letting me in

You're just a phone call away
Every day you seem further away
(You're just a phone call away)
I do my best to throw my pride aside and apologize
Cut myself down a notch
(Every day you seem further away)
And I know I said some things that hurt
Through ninety-seven missed calls
I'll finally get over you

Well, I'm just a fool for you
And I think I'm going crazy
I'm just a fool for you
And I think I'm going crazy
I'm just a fool for you
And I think I'm going crazy
I'm just a fool for you
And I think I'm going crazy

    General Comment:it's definitely "took me 97 missed calls to finally get over you"

    and I agree with yeshy.I think it's talking about that he knows she's no good for him but he can't let her go because he loves her too much.

    General Comment:I think that the line, "What's more important? Saving yourself or letting me in?" Is way to good to put in the arsenal of teenage boys haha. If I would have thought of something like that in high school I definitely would have used it haha. Anyway great song.


    BTW, why did someone have to ruin the first page of comments? It was kind of a dick move...

    General Comment:In this song, the guy is singing about a girl that he's totally crazy about. He has done everything he can to try and save their relationship, but she just keeps falling away from him. It's actually a really depressing song He's trying so hard to make things work out with this girl that he's constantly cutting himself down. He probably wants to leave her because of the hurtful things she does, but he just can't because in the end he realizes that he really loves her, and couldn't imagine his life without her in it. (poor guy). One more thing. I don't think he ever got over her. (it's gonna take a heck of a lot more than 97 missed calls). . . . good song :PP
