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 mean.
You`ll never be in doubt,
That`s what it`s all about,
You can`t take it for granted it`s mine.
Get home and please and don`t
Forget to reach 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 you ever allow,
I guess I wonder how,
How could you pick out your pockets of fun. HOW HOW!!
Well you know that you`ll never know toooooo,
Number one`s gonna be number one,
ohh oww oohh
I`ll be good,
I wish I could
I get this message over to you now.
ahhh, yeah, message, mmmm
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 I could,
I get this message over to you now.
ahhh, yeah
