George Clinton
Can’t Stay Away
[Intro]
I just can't stay
I, I, I can't stay
Oh, oh, oh, I can't stay
Hey
[Chorus]
Oh, I can't stay away from you too long
I hum your face just like a new song
Your smile is like a punchline
The part you sing all the time
Oh, I can't stay away from you too long
[Verse 1]
You know your name should be Melody, baby
'Cause your personality is, uh, so melodic
I been dreamin' to the tune of you
Since first we met
You turned me on in a day, baby
[Bridge]
Ever since I kissed you
I could never stand to miss you
So I'm singing 'bout your kisses
Every moment of the day
[Chorus]
Oh, I can't stay away from you too long
Your melody, I taste them when you're gone
Your smile is like a punchline
The part you sing all the time
Oh, I can’t stay away from you too long
[Verse 2]
You're number one with a bullet on my charts
You're a total smash, baby
Pop, you're R&B, you're MOR, you're easy listening
You turned me on in a day, baba
[Refrain]
Ever since I kissed you
I could never stand to miss you
So I'm singing 'bout your kisses
Every moment of the day
[Bridge]
You're so psychedelic, baby
You're also pretty music to my ears
By the way, what key are you in, baby?
La di da, la di da, la di di da da, baba
Well
[Outro]
I can't stay away
I can't stay away
I can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
Can't stay away
I can't stay away
I can't stay away (Can't stay away)
I can't stay away, oh, ooh
I can't stay away, oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, I can't stay away
I can't stay away (I can't stay away)
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away (Can't stay away)
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away (I can't stay away)
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
(Can't stay away, can't stay away, can't stay away)
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away (I just cannot stay away)
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
I just can't stay away
I can't stay away
