If You Want Me to Stay

If you want me to stay

I'll be around today

To be available for you to see

I'm about to go there

Then you'll know

For me to stay here

I've 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

'Cause 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

You got to get it straight

How could I ever be late

When you're my woman

Taking up my time

Oh how could I ever allow

I guess I wonder how

I could get out a pocket of fun

When you know that

You're never number two

Number one's gonna be number one

I'll be good

I wish I could

Get this message over to you now

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

Get this message over to you now

Get this message over to you now

I'll be so good
