Can\'t Get Caught

by Empress Jai   Aug 14, 2006


Baby I\'m creepin\'
It starts with us arguin\'
Begins with me always leavin\'
Grabbing my car keys at every chance
Runnin\' to his side while you sleepin\'
Bags already packed, I knew I\'d leave in advance
He\'s treatin me how I want to be treated
Stealing my heart after our first love dance
I\'m creepin\' slowly leavin\' you, killin\' our romance

Taking back ways to his house
Parking up the street
Gotta do things right
Can\'t get caught if I\'m gonna cheat
Laying in his arms throughout the night
Knowing its wrong
but knowing it feels so right
And if I had to do it again
I wouldn\'t be discreet
I\'d just leave you for him
there would be no need to creep

Sleeping with you, wishing for his arms to hold me tight
Rollin over, away from you, you pull me back
I sigh knowing I should leave, this is gonna be a long night
With him there\'s a sense of intimacy
an urge for passion
With you I think we\'ve lost that chemistry
Our love is dry, its no longer there, no form or fashion
Dreading waking up with you
Wishing to be looking into his eyes
I can\'t believe I\'ve got myself into this position
I ask myself so many questions but even I don\'t know the answers to all the whys
For me to have backed myself into this corner is insane!
But I can\'t help it, I can\'t let him go
I\'ve got him wrapped in my heart, locked in my brain.

Finally deciding to pull back the cover, I slide out of bed
I stop to make sure you\'re still asleep
I head toward the closet but decide to leave in my pajamas instead
Wrote you a note that read:

\"Baby ,
If you need me, call me
My friend slipped, hit her head
She\'s still on the floor
She called me on the cell
I\'m on the way there
Love Your Gurl,
Jai
Forevermore

Quietly grabbing my keys, I lock the front door
I hop in my car and speed off down the street
Hoping to God you don\'t know I\'ve left
Praying to Him your still asleep
Gotta do things right
Can\'t get caught if I\'m gonna cheat

Laying in his arms every night
No longer is it wrong
Still feels so good, so right.
Finally making my decision
No longer being discreet
I\'ve left you
I\'m with him
No more need to creep
Gotta do things right
Can\'t get caught
because I\'m no longer parking up the street.
No need to hide
No need to cheat.
