'Cause I ain’t got no one at all

This penthouse view

Ain’t as beautiful as you

Won’t ever have time

But I can make time for you

Know I used to tell lies

But I would never lie to you

Shopping spree on my dime

Looking all kinds of new

Do you know what I like?

What would you like to do?

Tell me, tell me

Attend to you

I know I’ve been, I know I’ve been away (Away)
