If You Want Me to Stay Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
And when you see me again, I hope that you have been
The kind of person that you really are now

[Verse 2]
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 for fun, oh oh
When you know that you're never number two
Number one is gonna be number one, oh, oh oh oh

[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh, I'll be good) Oh, I'll be good (I wish I could) I wish I could
Get this message over to you now

[Instrumental Break with Vocalizations]

[Chorus]
And when you see me again, I hope that you have been
The kind of person that you really are now

[Post-Chorus]
I'll be so good, I wish I could
Get this message over to you now

[Instrumental Break with Vocalizations]

[Outro]
Get this message over to you now
I'll be so good, I wish I could

[Instrumental Outro with Vocalizations]
