I Wanna Be

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

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 shows not a day

But what I'm tryna say is

I wanna be, girl, there's no ... call late at night

Said I wanna be first one at the door when you open your eyes

Wanna be the one you run to, wanna be one that ain't gon' hurt you

I wanna be him, I wanna be, yeah

Be the man makin' your girls jealous

Girl, I wanna be, be the guy that's shuttin' down all the fellows

Whatever you need, girl, it's all on me

So tell your friend or your lover, girl, I wanna be

Would it be cool? Would you mind if I called you my boo?

What if the next with you is 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, girl, there's no ... call late at night

I wanna be first one at the door when you open your eyes

Wanna be the one you run to, wanna be one that ain't gon' hurt you

I wanna be him, I wanna be, yeah

Be the man makin' your girls jealous

I wanna be, be the guy that's shuttin' down all the fellows

Whatever you need, girl, it's all on me

So tell your friend or your lover, girl, I wanna be

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’re cryin' for, stand up for and fightin' for

Wanna be your good, bad, love, hate, girl

If my heart hoped to die on everything that's good

I'ma do you right, show you right, get this understood

‘Cause my heart hoped to die on everything that's good

I'ma do you right, show you right, get this understood

I wanna be, girl, there's no ... call late at night

First one at the door when you open your eyes

Wanna be the one you run to, wanna be one that ain't gon' hurt you

I wanna be him, I wanna be, yeah

Be the man makin' your girls jealous

Be the guy that's shuttin' down all the fellows

Whatever you need, girl, it's all on me

So tell your friend or your lover, girl, I wanna be yours

Girl, I wanna be yours

I wanna be yours

I wanna be, I wanna be
