Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "If" von Destiny's Child handelt von einer Beziehung, die zu Ende geht. Die Sängerin erklärt, dass sie sich...

If I don't pick up the phone like I use to (for you)
Don't you take it personal
If I don't do all the things that I use to do (to you)
I ain't mad at you
If you get to feeling stressed up in your chest thinking that you're about to lose
(baby it's true)
And If you're losing out on sleep
Home worrying about me
That's how it be

If you don't know
Now you know you're gonna miss (my love)
And I ain't stressing bout a dog gone thing
Cuz I was true when I gave you (my love)
My love
If you search you will never find another love like (my love)
You're gonna miss me
I ain't got time while you sit around and play with my (my love)
My love

If you think I caught a feeling when I heard about that other chick (no)
I already knew about it
I just needed time just to clear my mind and ask myself
(why I didn't handle him)
If you would've taken care of home instead of leaving me alone (I)
Still would be right there with you
Taking care of you
Steady loving you
Like I use to do

If you don't know
Now you know you're gonna miss (my love)
And I ain't stressing bout a dog gone thing
Cuz I was true when I gave you (my love)
My love
If you search you will never find another love like (my love)
You're gonna miss me
I ain't got time while you sit around and play with my (my love)
My love

There was once a time I blame myself for what was done
I can see so clearly now because you are gone
That's how I spent all my time when you weren't at home
Playing around with them raggedy heifers
There'll be no more stressing
No more crying
No more trying
I would rather be alone
(I'd rather be all by myself)
Cuz this valuable heart of mine was yours until I realized
Finally opened my eyes

You see ladies I know I know better
What was I thinking?
He gone miss me when I'm gone

If you don't know
Now you know you're gonna miss (my love)
And I ain't stressing bout a dog gone thing
Cuz I was true when I gave you (my love)
My love
If you search you will never find another love like (my love)
You're gonna miss me
I ain't got time while you sit around and play with my (my love)
My love
