MARIAH CAREY - Betcha Gon' Know (The Prologue) lyrics

rate me

Though the lights were low

I could see you both

In a lover's silhouette

And my heart stood still

I was froze right there

Staring down at her red dress

So I bolted out the door

Jumped right into the car

It's too dangerous

To be in the vicinity of where you are

Rolled down all the windows

Just so I could breathe

I can't believe you just actually did this shit to me

I'm going bout a hundred

Mascara runnin

Laughing out of anger

But it don't strike me as funny

Been too good to you

I've been virtuous and true

To have something like this

Happen in my own bedroom

Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels

(when I get you back)

Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels

(when your heart's been cracked)

Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels

(when we fade to black)

How it feels for real

And you see your whole world collapse

I'm a la-la-la-la-la-laugh

I'm a la-la-la-la-la-laugh

I'm a la-la-la-la-la-laugh right in your face boy

Betcha Gon Know oh how it feels

So I pulled to the side

Of the road to fix my face

But I can't cover with make up

What my tears want to erase

I wake up in a haze

Morning dew and sun rays

As I drive I hide my eyes

Behind my black Cavalli Shades

A block from the house

Slowly creep in the driveway

Tip toe through the door

But you're there wide awake

You like "Where you been? "

I'm like "Sorry.

I fell asleep of Jasmine's sofa.

I coulda swore that Ray Ray

Called you and told ya"

You like "You okay"

I'm like "I'm alright.

Little sleep and I'll be fine."

But if you only knew

What was in the back of my mind

You already stung

But you really gon find out in time

This is for real, for real, for real

Oprah Winfrey, whole segment, for real, for real

20/20, Barbara Walters, for real, for real

60 minutes for real

Baby, I had all the guns but not a word from you

You got me all crazy, somewhere down the line your gon get what you deserve... you F*****G jerk

Your were supposed to save me, my sweet baby

Now we are fading away... but your gonna know how this feels

Even if it's the last thing I ever do
