  • Can it be I stayed away too long?
    Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
    Well it's not my thing trying to get back
    But this time let me tell you where I'm at

    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Anywhere you are
    Oh oh oh
    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Everywhere you are
    Oh oh oh

    Answer this...
    Could it be I should have came back in an orderly fashion
    Girl I'm just asking
    What happened to the way that we used to be?
    Up late at night counting stars just you and me
    Now I'm the star you feeling like you losin me
    But I won't let you go, you don't know what you do to me
    Like my religion you always stay true to me
    That's money over women, but you got glued to me
    I just want you back to light rooms with me
    And in the back of my mind, jump a broom with me
    Nah wait it's too soon for me
    I just want some space in your heart, is there room for me?

    Can it be I stayed away too long?
    Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
    Well it's not my thing trying to get back
    But this time let me tell you where I'm at

    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Anywhere you are
    Oh oh oh
    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Everywhere you are
    Oh oh oh

    Aye now that I'm gone I gotta testify
    I wanna bee with you and I cannot lie
    Looking at my phone another text inside
    Saying how you miss me like I just passed by
    Now I'm out on the road like the Jackson 5
    Say you happy for the kid, but when I'm gone you crying
    When I reply you get that high
    Like that's my swag girl I'm just that fly
    But you gon hold me down like gravitation
    Cause back at home we was passed the dating
    Now I want to see your face and I passed the waiting
    Thinking bout a ring got the pastor waiting

    Can it be I stayed away too long?
    Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
    Well it's not my thing trying to get back
    But this time let me tell you where I'm at

    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Anywhere you are
    Oh oh oh
    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Everywhere you are
    Oh oh oh

    It's 3rd back again
    And I need you baby like oxygen
    If I start from 10 telling you how I feel
    By the time I get to one you would know that it's real
    10 is your smile I ain't seen in a while
    9 you're all mines and I love your sign
    8 is no debate me and you look great
    And 7 keep letting me know to have faith
    6 is a kiss that I leave on ya cheek
    5 no lies and I put it on a beat
    4 so much more that we got to see
    3 you just can't be without me
    2 me and you always have a ball
    1 I'm gon' call so don't ask at all

    Can it be I stayed away too long?
    Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
    Well it's not my thing trying to get back
    But this time let me tell you where I'm at

    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Anywhere you are
    Oh oh oh
    I wanna wanna be where you are
    Oh oh
    Everywhere you are
    Oh oh oh Writer/s: Cahron Childs, Chianti Glee, Corey Fowler, Marquinarius Holmes, Mico Lane
