Just In Case

Just in case you forgot to buy milk,
I bought you some more.
Just in case you forgot your key,
I left one in a secret place like before.

Just in case you forgot to walk the dog and bring in the cat,
Don't worry darling, I've taken care of that.

Just in case you forgot to take the washing out of the machine,
It's done, I know how rushed you've been.

Just in case you forgot to eat lunch,
Don't worry sweetheart, I fixed an appetising bunch.

Just in case you've forgotten to call,
That's alright, hope you're having a ball.

Just in case I'm not there at the end of the line,
I pray you still have a good time.

Just in case I forgot to turn out the light,
It's not goodbye, only good night.

Just in case I leave without saying goodbye,
Don't shed a tear my darling, I didn't die.

Just in case you're reading this after I've gone,
Your life's still ahead of you, don't stop, move on.
