Also, I tend to read "I'll call you in the morning" as actually meaning the more tacitly understood "I *won't* call you, but I'll say that I will - and if you call me, my service will pick up." The whole sense of the lyric to me is in the LACK of committment/connection. Haven't we all been on first dates, etc, where we know the obligatory "I'll call you" is just something you say to be polite, lol?

So really, one wouldn't really be expecting even a text conversation, let alone a call.
