Lyrics Aretha Franklin

Aretha Franklin

I Wanna Be Around

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces

When somebody breaks your heart

Somebody twice as smart as I

A somebody who will swear to be true

Like you used to do with me

Oh, but who’ll leave you to learn

That misery loves company, oh, wait and see

And I do mean, I wanna be around to see how she does it

When she breaks your heart to bits

Now let’s see how the puzzle fits so fine

And that’s when I’ll discover that revenge is so sweet

As I sit there applaudin’ from a front-row seat

When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine

Oh, yeah, like you, oh, like you broke mine, yeah
