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 of 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
 Oh, I'll be good, I wish I could
 I get this message over to you now
 Ahh!
 ♪
 Oh-oh, yeah, ah-ah-ah
 When you see me again, I hope that you have been
 The kind of person you really are now
 I'll be so good, oh, I wish that I could
 Get the message over to you now, ah-oh
 To show good to you, woman
 'Cause I love you little baby
 OK, baby
