As recorded by DEEK WATSON & HIS BROWN DOTS:

Just in case you change your mind
Though it takes a year or more
I'll be hangin' round your door
Just in case you change your mind

For you told me in advance
That you would never leave me
But not knowing positively
Well, I thought I'd take a chance

Now, I'm trying my best to laugh
But I'm blue as can be
Oh, just seeing your photograph
It keeps on smiling at me

Though, my love, you have declined
And you're certain we are through
But I'll continue being true
Just in case you change your mind

Just in case you change your mind
I'll be hangin' round your door
Just like I did before
Baby, just in case you change your mind

Though you warned me in advance
That you'd never, ever, ever, ever leave me
But you didn't say positively
Well, I thought I'd take a chance on romance

Oh, I'm tryin' my best
Though I'm as blue as can be
But just seeing your photograph
It keeps on smiling at me

Just in case you change your mind
I'll be bangin' on your door
And I'll go ??? ??? like I did before
Baby, just in case you change your mind

I'll still be around, yeah, I told ya
Just in case, just in case you change your mind, yeah

As recorded by BULLMOOSE JACKSON & His Buffalo Bearcats:

Just in case you change your mind
Though it takes a year or more
I'll be hangin' round your door
Just in case you change your mind

Though you warned me in advance
And you said that you would leave me
Still, you didn't say positively
So I thought I'd take a chance

Now, I'm trying my best to laugh
But I'm blue as I can be
I keep seeing your photograph
It keeps on smiling at me

Though, my love, you have declined
And you feel that we are through
But I'll continue being true
Just in case you change your mind

Baby, hear me when I say
I'll be hangin' round all day
Just in case you change your mind

As recorded by BOBBY DARIN:

Just in case you change your mind
Though it takes a year or more
I'll be hangin' round your door
Just in case you change your mind

Though you told me we were through
And another love you'd find
I'll be always lovin' you
Just in case you change your mind

I'm tryin' so hard to laugh
But I'm blue as can be
I keep seein' your photograph
It keeps on hauntin' me

Just in case you wanta call
I'll be sittin' by the phone
Just a-waitin' all alone
Just in case you change your mind
I'll be waitin' all alone
Just in case you change your mind
