Where I Wanna Be

Lyrics

I said I left my baby girl a message
 Sayin' I won't be coming home
 I'd rather be alone
 She doesn't fully understand me
 'Cause I'd rather leave than to cheat
 ♪
 If she'll give me some time
 I can be the man she needs
 But there's a lot of lust inside of me
 And we've been together since our teenage years
 I really don't mean to hurt her
 But I need some time to be alone
 ♪
 But when you love someone
 You just don't treat them bad
 Oh, how I feel so sad now that I wanna leave
 She's crying her heart to me
 "How could you let this be?"
 I just need time to see where I wanna be
 ♪
 Where I wanna be
 ♪
 Sweet little dee-do-dee-dee
 I don't mean to hurt you, baby, oh no, no
 ♪
 Never did I imagine that you would play a major part
 ♪
 In a decision that's so hard
 Do I leave? Do I stay? Do I go?
 I think about my life
 And what matters to me the most
 Girl, the love that we share is real
 
 But in time your heart will heal
 
 I'm not saying I'm gone but I
 
 Have to find what life is like without you
 ♪
 But when you love someone
 You just don't treat them bad
 Oh, how I feel so sad now that I wanna leave
 
 She's crying her heart to me
 "How could you let this be?"
 I just need time to see where I wanna be
