Songfacts®:

  • This song is about how much the singer loves to talk on the phone with, most likely, a girl who he is infatuated with, but this never happens before. It also seems that he looks back to better days back when he spoke to this person, but she found a new "best-time buddy" and forgot all about him. >>>

  • This song featured in the 2007 Jessica Alba romantic comedy film Good Luck Chuck. It was an edited version in which the lyrics "but you never call at all" were cut out.
