"Suitcase" lyrics - MARY J. BLIGE

MARY J. BLIGE
"Suitcase"
(Mark J. Feist / Crystal Nicole / Adrian Sotomayor)

I wonder if I took these scars
And put dirt in them
Would I brought me a brand new heart
Will love work again
If I keep let you hurt me
I might have to plead insanity
'Cause everything in me is telling me to go

'Cause I can't keep on crying when I see ya
Messing up my make up
Thinking you gon' change
But everything's the same
Starting keeping secrets
Got my heart in pieces
I'mma 'bout to pick myself up, and go

You gon' wake up in the morn
And find out that I'm already gone
Got a one way ticket, here's your goodbye song
And while you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase

Boy had everything
I never thought about another man
Gave you so much control on me
Your love really had me bugging me
If I don't let you go, you'll just keep on hurting me more and more
'Cause everything in me is telling me to go

'Cause I can't keep on crying when I see ya
Messing up my make up
Thinking you gon' change
But everything's the same
Starting keeping secrets
Got my heart in pieces
I'mma 'bout to pick myself up, and go

You gon' wake up in the morn
And find out that I'm already gone
Got a one way ticket, here's your goodbye song
And while you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
One foot out the door
You won't hurt me no more
Got my things, I'm on my way
There's no reason for me to stay
'Cause I finally see the truth
And I refuse to be used
I'm so cool not loving you
Zipping up my suitcase

You gon' wake up in the morn
And find out that I'm already gone
Got a one way ticket, here's your goodbye song
And while you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
