Can it be I stayed away too long?
And did I leave your mind when I was gone?
It's not my thing - trying to get back
Darlin', let me tell you where I'm at

I want to be where you are
Oh, oh
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I want to be where you are
. Oh, oh, darlin'
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You don't have to worry 'cause I'm coming
Back to where I always should have stayed
Now I've learned the meaning to your story, Mama
And there's enough love for me to stay

I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, yes, darlin'
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, yes, Mama
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Please don't close the door to our future
There's so many things we haven't tried
I will love you better than I used to
And give you all the love, yes, I have inside, yeah
Oh, oh, baby

I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, yes, darlin'
I want to be where you are
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yay, yeah
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be, listen, darlin'
I want to be where you are
So I can hold you, baby, hold you darlin', don't you know?

Yo quiero estar contigo, oyeme, para vacilar
Para tenerte why decirte cuanto te quiero, yeah
Yo quiero estar contigo, contigo why nada más para vacilar oyeme
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I want to be, I want to be, I want to be
I want to be with you some night, some night
Some night when I can hold you darlin'
Yay, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, hey, hey
Oh yeah, darlin'

Let's get down, baby, get down
'Cause I want to be where you are, where you are
It doesn't matter how near or how far
I want to be where you are, I want to be where you are, darlin'
