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
