Song Lyrics

[Intro]
What's up baby? It's me and
My plane leave for Kenya in the morning
I wanted to see you before I left
But you're not home so
Well, this is finally my big break, wish me luck
And um, I want you to know
That no matter where I am or what I'm doing
I'll always love you, bye bye

Good bye, it's time for me to go
I'll call you in the morning so I can let you know
The way you really feel boy, put your mind at ease
I don't think I will, if I make it
I still want you to be there with me

1 - I'll be there one day
And you will be right next to me
I'll be there one day
And you will be right next to me
Right here next to me

I wonder, will you be where I am, baby
Will you be by my side, boy?
Or with another girl?
Just wait a little longer boy, I don't know how long
Just try to understand this is not what I planned
I'm so sorry this had to be, had to be

Repeat 1

Boy, oh boy for every man there's a woman
(Every man needs a woman)
It's your lovin' that I choose
And I can't afford to lose you, baby
That's why I swear, I swear to the world
I'll always be your girl
Just say you'll be right next to me

Repeat 1 until fade
