Just in Case (He breaks your heart)

/You say you've got
all the man you'll ever need...
You say you're as happy as a clam,
but really you're not..
that's just the way it seems.../

/ Oh I know, you're in a hurry
you don't have the time to talk....
and I thought that we were friends..
Oh but don't worry....
For now ,I'll take that walk..
I just hope that you're right about him../

"Put a quarter in the meter and park right here."

/ Just in case
Just in case he breaks your heart
don't lose my phone number...
Just in case
Just in case he breaks your heart
I'll be around to pick up the peices
once he's torn your heart asunder...
Just in case he breaks your heart./

/ There's a lot of little things that you don't know-
like the other women he sees..
and the places he goes...
you think it's all about you..
but really it's not....
People are talking about -
all the other women he's got.../

/ Deep down inside you know....
you're on a roller coaster ride that's going
nowhere...
I can see it in your eyes
everytime he tells you one of those lies
about how much he cares.../

"Okay baby, I'm gonna lock and load right here...
check it out.. I'm gon get like The Isley Brothers
on ya..."

/Just remember
who really loves you...
Who has always put you before anyone else...
Get a little stronger in your spirit....
at least find you a man for yourself...
for yourself..../

/ Just in case
Just in case he breaks your heart
Girl, give me a text ,e-mail or a call...
Just in case he breaks your heart
I'll be around to pick you up when you fall-
Just in case he breaks your heart..../
