I ain't sayin' that I always sleep alone

I ain't sayin' that I ain't met no one else

Done a little bit of midnight movin' on

And I ain't sayin' when I do that it don't help.

Leave with someone, I don't know her name

Pull her real close but I leave some space

And I could forget you, girl, for good

And even though I should.

I never let my heart go all the way

Every time I try, I just hit the brakes

And there's always a couple tryin' to take your place

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case

You wake up wantin' me outta the blue

You lay down needin' what I used to do

Yeah, every now and then I go get a taste

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case, just in case.

I always take it to the edge then I back it up

They don't know I got a reason for actin' up

I ain't felt a damn thing, baby, after us

Yeah, I'm just hopin' you'll come back to us.

That's wishful thinkin', baby, honestly

But I know you ain't forgotten me.

So I never let my heart go all the way

Every time I try, I just hit the brakes

And there's always a couple tryin' to take your place

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case

You wake up wantin' me outta the blue

You lay down needin' what I used to do

Yeah, every now and then I go get a taste

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case, just in case.

Leave with someone, I don't know her name

Pull her real close but I leave some space

Yeah, I could have three words on my tongue

But I won't ever say 'em.

'cause I never let my heart go all the way

Every time I try, I just hit the brakes

And there's always a couple tryin' to take your place

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case

You wake up wantin' me outta the blue

You lay down needin' what I used to do

Yeah, every now and then I go get a taste

But I never fall in love, baby, just in case, just in case.
