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’m about to go, I hope and 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 'til I’m gone, forget reachin' me by phone |
| 'Cause I promise, I’ll be gone for a while |
| 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, takin' up my time |
| Oh how could I ever allow, I guess I wonder how |
| I could get out a pocket for fun |
| When you know that, you’re never number two |
| Number one’s gonna be number one |
| 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 |
| If you want me to stay, I’ll be around today |
| To be available for you to see |
| But I’m about to go, I hope and then you’ll know |
| For me to stay here, I’ve got to be me |
