Call Me Maybe

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I threw a wish in the well,

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,

But now you're in my way

Now you're in my way

Hey, I just met you,

This is crazy,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

It's hard to look right,

At you babe,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

Call me, maybe

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

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?

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,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

It's hard to look right,

At you babe,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

And all the other boys,

Try to chase me...

And all the other boys,

Try to chase me...

And all the other boys,

Try to chase me...

And all the other boys,

Try to chase me...

Hey, I just met you,

And this is crazy,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

It's hard to look right,

At you babe,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

Hey, I just met you,

And this is crazy,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe

It's hard to look right,

At you babe,

Here's my number,

Call me, maybe
