mtume - i'd rather be with you lyrics

[intro]
(pouring champagne, phone rings)
+ oh, excuse me… h+llo?
+ why does it take you so long?
+ i was doing, uh…
+ yeah, look, look. listen, we’ve been missing each other for some time now. and i don’t know what to do about it
+ mhm, i know, but…
+ look, the travel, the job–it all keeps me away from you. i realize i haven’t been all i could or should be, and i really wouldn’t blame you for seeing someone else
+ you know, we get involved in so many things, we get caught up giving things, buying things, in place of love and affection…
+ but i bought you those things, because i care!
+ you bought thosе things, because you’re not hеre
(in the background: “where do you keep the ice?”)
+ i’d rather be with you…

[chorus]
i’d rather be with you, yeah
yes, i’d rather be with you
i’d rather be with you, yeah (rather be with you)
yes, i’d rather be with you

[verse 1]
i’d rather be with you until i’m thru, oh yes i do
i’d rather be with you until that day we’ll fly away
i just love your smilin’ face, in the early sun
if i can’t have you to myself, then life’s no fun
[chorus]
i’d rather be with you, yeah
yes, i’d rather be with you
(rather be with you) i’d rather be with you, yeah
yes, i’d rather be with you (with you)

[verse 2]
i’d rather be with you until i’m thru, oh yes i do
i wanna be your friend, not now and then, but ’til the end
i’m livin’ and lovin’, waitin’ for the moment
when we’ve got time to give
and if i can’t get to love you, what’s a telephone bill?

[outro]
i’d… rather be, rather be, rather be
rather be, rather be, rather be
ooh, ooh, yes…
