lyrics

Just In Case

If you ever let me go
I don’t know what I’d do
Maybe stow away upon some ship and
Sail the ocean blue
With any luck my boat would land in
Some exotic place
But just in case...don’t let me go

Maybe I would walk for miles un-
‘til my feet were sore
Maybe I would swim a river
To some distant shore
Maybe some of what I’d see would put a
Smile upon my face
But just in case...don’t let me go

‘Cause I’d rather not find out
What it’s like to live without
All the love that I could ever need and more
Whatever for?

Maybe some indigenous tribe would
Kindly take me in
Maybe I’d find luck in Vegas and
Live off what I win
Though I might find joy in laying down a
Winning lucky ace
Just in case...don’t let me go

If, with time, the words I say
Get stale and lose their charm
And if there’s no more novelty in
Hanging on my arm
You might still want someone by your side
For any dreams you’ve yet to chase
So, just in case...don’t let me go
