I Wanna Be

in AlbumExclusive

[Intro:]

[Sigh] Look. I know we've been friends for a while now.

But, I just feel like I can confess to you.

It's gonna be hard but.

Alright here it goes...

[Verse 1:]

Imagine that the pillow that you cried on was my chest,

and the tissue that you wiped your face with was my hand.

Girl, imagine: if you needed advise about some other guy, I'm the one that comes to mind.

Not tryna hear you tell nobody that I'm just a friend,

just trying to make sure I'm that body that you call your man,

and anytime you need a shoulder -- it's yours, night or day,

but what I'm tryna say is, I wanna be...

[Chorus:]

The last number you call late at night (said I wanna be),

The first one that you dial when you open your eyes.

Wanna be the one you run to,

wanna be the one that ain't gonna hurt you,

I wanna be yeah, I wanna be yeah..

Be the man making your girl jealous,

be the guy shuttin' down all the fellas..

whatever you need, girl, it's all on me:

soldier, your friend or your lover, girl,

I wanna be...

[Verse 2:]

Would it be cool?

Would you mind if I called you my boo,

what if the next whip you was pushin' was the one I bought for you?

Can I be the one that meets your pops and take your mama shoppin', be the only one they like?

Have you thought about it -- wait -- really thought about it?

Maybe you should take some time

call your girls and talk about it, yeah.

'cause I done already made up my mind,

don't need no more time to know if I wanna be with you,

I wanna be...

[Verse 3:]

Put me on your screen saver, all over your myspace and make me one of your top favorites,

that's where I wanna be...

The one you cryin' for (stand up for and fightin' for)

wanna be your good, bad, love, hate girl..

[Chorus]

[x2]

Cross my heart hoped to die, on everything that's good,

I'm gonna do you right, show you right, get this understood.

[Chorus]

Girl I wanna be, I wanna be.... [sigh]

I wanna be, I wanna be...
