Can’t Stay Away Lyrics by Leroy Hutson

Hutson

Spoken:
Walked past your apartment this morning
I could you standing by the window picking out your hair
And while I stood there
I thought to myself
"That sweet chocolate lady used to be mine!"
And now here I stand on the outside looking in
And wish surely hoping for something that I don't really have
And didn't realize what I had when I had it
It was something very special
The kind of love that truly comes along just once in a lifetime
Oh, I realize now that you have your own
Desires aspirations in life
And I can think of a lot of things I'd do different...
If I only had the chance...
I find myself believing
What my friends would always say
Bout the time would soon be coming
When I'd want you back to stay
Serves me right -- to feel this heartache
But I really -- I really can't be mad
'Cause I had all the love --
I could ever need -- didn't realize what I had
But I found out -- the hard way (I can't stay away -- Just can't stay away -- from you)
Naw, Naw -- Naw, Naw
I just can't stay away from you, Naw, Naw (I can't stay away -- Just can't stay away -- from you)
A woman likes to know that she's appreciated
Love and trust are surely both related
And some times emotion has a way of finding itself
Make you feel there's nothing left, Ohhh
(I can't stay away -- Just can't stay away -- from you)
I just can't stay away from you
No matter what I try to do -- Listen, girl
I need you here with me in this misery (I can't stay away -- Just can't stay away -- from you)
(brief musical interlude with horn playing)
Now in these days -- when most women don't have time
To bring a little comfort to the mind --
And give him piece of mind
You always came to me (Oooh, Oooh, Ooooooh) -- you came with the tender loving care
And that's why I know -- I just can't let you --
I just can't let you go nowhere (I can't stay away -- I just can't stay away )I can't stay away - I just can't stay away)
And sometimes at night -- sometimes at night when I think about it
It breaks me up -- really turns me around
It tears me up inside -- when I think about it
I let you get away -- when we should be gettin' down
Oh, girl, I know it's my own fault
I'm going through these changes (Whoo, Whooo, Whooo)
But I want you to come on back home to me, girl
I'm gonna make it up -- Im gonna make it up to you, Yeah, Yeah (I can't stay away -- I just can't stay away)
And sometimes at night -- sometimes at night when I think about
Whooooo! Whhooooo Oooh! (Whoooh, Whoooh, Whoooooh)
