[Hook]

Wish I could keep you much longer

I know you gotta go cause you got things to do

Wish I could keep you much longer

Now you too busy for me girl, like I was to you

[Post-Hook]

Wish I could stop by and maybe say "hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

Wish I could just stop by and maybe say "hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

[Verse 1]

The tables have turned

And I've finally learned

That this is making up for every day I was gone

And that's why I'm concerned

But now it's confirmed

That you spread your wings and learned to fly but all alone

[Pre-Hook]

Darkness in the night, I'll find that light for you

As long as I got eyes, I'll have a sight for you

Long as I'm alive baby, I'd die for you, wanna be with you

[Hook]

Wish I could keep you much longer

I know you gotta go 'cause you got things to do

Wish I could keep you much longer

Now you too busy for me girl, like I was to you

[Post-Hook]

Wish I could stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

Wish I could just stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

[Verse 2]

You're always on my mind, while I'm racin'

While I'm paper chasin'

You were there when I said one day I'd get up out that basement

Playin' as my agent

For you there's no replacement

You will always be my girl, you can hold me on that statement

[Pre-Hook]

Darkness in the night, I'll find that light for you

As long as I got eyes, I'll have a sight for you

Long as I'm alive, baby, I'd die for you, wanna be with you

[Hook]

Wish I could keep you much longer

I know you gotta go 'cause you got things to do

Wish I could keep you much longer

Now you too busy for me girl, like I was to you

[Post-Hook]

Wish I could stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

Wish I could just stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

[Bridge: Akon]

Baby, I know you and how we do

Doing exactly what I taught you

Gotta get that money first before you

Come spend that precious time with your boo

And know I gotta just take it

Even though it's drivin' me crazy

Always want to see my girl make it (Ooh, yeah)

[Hook]

Wish I could keep you much longer

I know you gotta go 'cause you got things to do

Wish I could keep you much longer (I wish, I wish I could keep you so much longer)

Now you too busy for me girl, like I was to you

[Post-Hook]

Wish I could stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

Wish I could just stop by and maybe say "Hi"

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

[Hook]

Wish I could keep you much longer (Wish I could keep you, baby)

I know you gotta go 'cause you got things to do

Wish I could keep you much longer (Wish I could keep you, baby)

Now you too busy for me girl, like I was to you

[Post-Hook]

Wish I could stop by and maybe say "Hi" (I just wanna keep you longer...)

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

Wish I could just stop by and maybe say "Hi" (I just wanna keep you longer...)

Wish I could just stop by and lay by your side

[Outro]

I just wanna keep you longer...

I just wanna keep you longer...
