Brenda Lee Lyrics
"I Wanna Be Around"

(Johnny Mercer - Sadie Vimmerstedt)

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces
When somebody breaks your heart
Some, somebody twice as smart as I
Somebody who will swear to be true as you used to do with me
Who'll leave you to learn that misery loves company wait and see.

I wanna be around to see how she does it
When she breaks your heart to bits
Let's see if the puzzle fits so fine
And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet
As I sit there applauding from a front row seat
When somebody breaks your heart like you, like you broke mine...
