If You Want Me To Stay - Eric Benet

If you want me to stay
I'll be around today
Available for you to see
Well I'm about to go
And then you'll know
For me to stay here
I've got to be me


You'll never be down
That's what it's all about
Can't take me for granted smile
Count my days I'm gone
Together me and you by phone
I promised I'll be gone for a while


When you see me again 
I hope that you have been
The kind of person 
That you really are now


Got to get them straight 
How could I ever be late 
To the only woman taking up my time
How could I ever allow
I guess I wondered how 
I could forget about a pocket of fun


When you know 
That you'll never ever do
Number one's gonna be number one


I'll be good
I wish I could 
Get the message over to you now


When you see me again
I hope that you have been 
The kind of person 
That you really are now
