Look around your world pretty baby
Is it everything you hoped it'd be
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me
Roll to me
Look into your heart pretty baby
Is it aching with some nameless need?
Is there something wrong
And you can't put your finger on it?
Right, then roll to me
And I don't think I have ever seen
A soul so in despair
So if you want to talk the night through
Guess who will be there?
So don't try to deny it pretty baby
You've been down so long you can hardly see
When the engine's stalled and it won't stop raining
It's the right time to roll to me
Roll to me
Roll to me
And I don't think I have ever seen
A soul so in despair
So if you want to talk the night through
Guess who will be there?
So,
Look around your world pretty baby
Is it everything you hoped it'd be
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me
The right time to roll to me
The right time to roll to me...oooh
Is it everything you hoped it'd be
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me
Roll to me
Look into your heart pretty baby
Is it aching with some nameless need?
Is there something wrong
And you can't put your finger on it?
Right, then roll to me
And I don't think I have ever seen
A soul so in despair
So if you want to talk the night through
Guess who will be there?
So don't try to deny it pretty baby
You've been down so long you can hardly see
When the engine's stalled and it won't stop raining
It's the right time to roll to me
Roll to me
Roll to me
And I don't think I have ever seen
A soul so in despair
So if you want to talk the night through
Guess who will be there?
So,
Look around your world pretty baby
Is it everything you hoped it'd be
The wrong guy, the wrong situation
The right time to roll to me
The right time to roll to me
The right time to roll to me...oooh

I adore this song! Definitely brings back old memories.
I really do think it's about a guy who is interested in a girl because he specifically says, "the wrong guy, the wrong situation, the right time to roll to me." I mean, by addressing she's with the WRONG guy, it implies he might be the RIGHT guy. I can see it applying to more general situations too, though.
"Look into your heart pretty baby, is it aching with some nameless need? If there's something wrong and you can't put your finger on it, right then, roll with me." These lines really, really hit home with me. You know those moments in life when almost everything is going smoothly, exactly how it should be, yet you aren't quite happy? You should feel incredible yet you are left feeling discontent, as if "the engine's stalled and it won't stop raining."
I think this song is about a girl who is in a relationship that isn't horrible, but she's still unhappy. She views her life as mediocre. The speaker sees this, and he thinks he can be everything she is looking for, and he's willing to be there as both a friend and lover.
