If You Want Me To Stay Ari Lennox & Anthony Ramos

[Ari Lennox]
If you want me to stay, I'll be around today
To be available for you to see
But I'm about to go and then you'll know
For me to stay here, I got to be me

[Anthony Ramos]
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
Because I promise I'll be gone for a while

[Ari Lennox]
And when you see me again I hope that you have been
The kind of person that you really are now

[Anthony Ramos]
You got to get in straight, how could I ever be late
When you're the woman taking up my time?
Whoa, oh, how could you ever allow?

[Ari Lennox, both, Anthony Ramos]
I guess I wonder how
How could you get out a pocket for fun
When you know that you're never number two (Never number two)
Number one's gonna be number one (Oh, ow, oh)
I'll be good, I wish I could
Get this message over to you now
Oh, oh, ayy
Oh, baby, eh, eh, oh, ayy
