[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I remember I said we should split
~#**************#~
Had a lot going on and you werent part of it
~#**************#~
You trying to reason with me, I admit, but I did
~#**************#~
And now Im walking around so, so sick
~#**************#~
And now Im fiending, for you thats a fact
~#**************#~
Got me missing you like L.A. misses Shaq
~#**************#~
What I got to do, on my mission to get you back
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im just that whack without you, oh baby, baby, I
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Really didnt mean it when I said it, Ill repeat it
~#**************#~
I was tripping, flipping out it was some nonsense (Oh baby, baby, I)
~#**************#~
I was on a whole ‘nother level, now I got it all together
~#**************#~
I was sick, but now Im better (Oh baby, baby, I)
~#**************#~
I was trying to push you away, really wanted you to stay
~#**************#~
Didnt know that was the case (Oh baby, baby, I)
~#**************#~
It was just plain crazy cause round here lately
~#**************#~
Been thinking bout nothing but my baby
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If youre in Houston

~#**************#~

~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I wanna be where you are (Oh, oh)
~#**************#~
Could it be I stayed away too long, oh? (Oh)
~#**************#~
I wanna be where you are (Oh, oh)
~#**************#~
Could it be I stayed away too long, oh?
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Whats done is done, and I want to take it back
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Got to get you, got to get you here
