0:30If you want me to stay, I'll be around today

0:39But I'm about to go and then you'll know
0:44For me to stay here, I got to be me
0:48You'll never be in doubt, that's what it's all about
0:53You can't take me for granted and smile
0:58Count the days I'm gone, forget reachin' me by phone
1:03Because I promise I'll be gone for a while
1:07And when you see me again I hope that you have been
1:12The kind of person that you really are now
1:16You got to get in straight, how could I ever be late
1:21When you're the woman taking up my time?
1:26Whoa, oh, how could you ever allow? I guess I wonder how
1:31I could get out a pocket for fun
1:35When you know that you're never number two (Never number two)
1:40Number one's gonna be number one (Oh, ow, oh)
1:46I'll be good, I wish I could

2:02Oh, oh, ayy
2:13Oh, baby, eh, eh, oh, ayy
2:14And when you see me again, I hope that you have been
