The song "Call To Love" by Jimmy Eat World seems to be about a person expressing their doubts and concerns about someone they are interested in who may not be sincere in their love. The lyrics suggest that the person the singer is addressing is involved with someone else who may be showering them with materialistic things, but the singer believes that these things won't truly save the jaded girl. The singer questions the intentions of this person, believing that their love for the other person is not genuine. They seem to be suggesting that despite the fancy gifts and attention, the person is not being treated right by their current partner. The singer, on the other hand, feels that their own love is more sincere and genuine. The lyrics also imply that the singer has heard rumors about the person they are interested in, but they are straightforward and don't want to waste time playing games. They don't want to have their heart broken again and are tired of hearing empty promises. They express that they are not interested in receiving love when it's broken down or insincere. The song also touches upon the idea that the singer has tried various ways to communicate their feelings and make it clear that they are not in love with the person they are addressing. However, they admit that there may be some uncertainty in their own feelings, implying that they may still have some lingering affection. In the chorus, the singer suggests that love is worth taking a chance on, but warns the person to send back any false signals before it's too late. They want the person to answer their call to love, which could imply that they want them to respond sincerely to their feelings or take a chance on a genuine connection. Overall, the song appears to be about expressing doubts and concerns about someone's intentions and hopes for a genuine and sincere love connection.
