Just In Case Lyrics by Morgan Wallen
Verse 1
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
Even though I should
Chorus
I never let my heart go all the way
Every time I try, I just hit the brakes
And there's always a couple tryna take your place
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
You wake up wantin' me out of 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
Verse 2
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
Chorus
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 tryna take your place
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
You wake up wantin' me out of 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
Bridge
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
Chorus
'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 tryna take your place
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
You wake up wantin' me out of 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

A Deeper Dive Into the Song: Just In Case by Morgan Wallen Lyrics Meaning
Verses
The singer is still hung up on a past relationship and is trying to seek out new relationships right now to help him forget the past girl. He is trying to put his attention and love on the new girl he meets, but ends up backing out because he can’t move on from his ex. He couldn’t fall in love again, even if he tried, because he’s still hoping that his ex will come back.
Chorus
There had been a couple of girls who tried to make him fall in love, but he always ended up backing out. He’s always reserved just in case his ex realizes she still wants him. He doesn’t let himself fall in love with the new girls so that when his ex comes back, he can easily end it with the new one and get back with the ex.
Bridge
He’s going to go home with someone new and try with her, but he still ends up putting space between them. He knows he’s fully capable of falling in love with the new girl, but he won’t.
