If You Want Me to Stay

If you want me to stay

I'll be around today

To be available for you to see

But I am about to go

And then you'll know

For me to stay here I got to be me

You'll never be in doubt

That's what it's all about

You can't take me for granted and smile

Count the days I'm gone

Forget reachin' me by phone

Because I promise I'll be gone for a while

And when you see me again

I hope that you have been

The kind of person....that you really are now

Got to get in straight

How could I ever be late

When you're my woman taking up my time

Whoa, oh how could I ever allow

I guess I wonder how

I could get out a pocket for fun (HOW HOW)

When you know that you're never number two

Number one's gonna be number one

Ohh oww oohh

I'll be good

I wish I could

I get this message over to you now

And when you see me again

I hope that you have been

The kind of person....that you really are now

I'll be so good

I wish I could

I get this message over to you now
