If You Want Me to Stay
Alright!
If you want me to stay, I'll be around today
Available for you to see
I'm about to go and then you'll know
For me to stay, 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 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 you really are now
You got to get it straight, how could I ever be late
When you're my man takin' up my time
How could I ever allow? I guess I wonder how
Could you get out a pocket for fun
When you know that you're number two
Number one gonna be number one
I'll be good to you, I wish I could
I get this message over to you now, oh baby
When you see me again, I hope that you have been
The kind of person you really are now
I'll be so good, I wish, I could
Get the message over to you now
And if you want me to stay, baby, if you want me to stay
If you want me to stay, I'll be around today
Available for you to see
I'm about to go and then you'll know
For me to stay, 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
If you want me to stay
If you want me to stay, hey babe
If you need me to stay
If you want me to stay, baby
Count the days I'm gone, baby
Count the days I'm gone, baby
Count the days I'm gone, yeah
Yeah, baby, I'll stay around if you want me, oh baby
If you want me, I'll be around
If you want me to stay, I'll be around today
Available for you to see
I'm about to go and then you'll know
For me to stay, 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 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 you really are now
You got to get it straight, how could I ever be late
When you're my man takin' up my time
How could I ever allow? I guess I wonder how
Could you get out a pocket for fun
When you know that you're number two
Number one gonna be number one
I'll be good to you, I wish I could
I get this message over to you now, oh baby
When you see me again, I hope that you have been
The kind of person you really are now
I'll be so good, I wish, I could
Get the message over to you now
And if you want me to stay, baby, if you want me to stay
If you want me to stay, I'll be around today

For me to stay, 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
If you want me to stay
If you want me to stay, hey babe
If you need me to stay
If you want me to stay, baby

Count the days I'm gone, baby
Count the days I'm gone, yeah
Yeah, baby, I'll stay around if you want me, oh baby
If you want me, I'll be around
