ERYKAH BADU LYRICS - Window Seat

"Window Seat"



So, presently

I'm standing here right now

You're so demanding

Tell me what you want from me



Concluding, concentrating

On my music, lover and my babies

Makes me wanna ask the lady

For a ticket outta town



So can I get a window seat?

Don't want nobody next to me

I just want a ticket outta town

A look around and a safe touch down



Window seat

Don't want nobody next to me

I just want a chance to fly

A chance to cry and a long bye-bye



But I need you to want me

Need you to miss me

I need your attention

I need you next me



I need someone to clap for me

I need your direction

Somebody say, come back

Come back, baby, come back

I want you to need me



Come back, come back, baby, come back

Come back, come back, baby, come back

Come back, come back, baby, come back



So, in my mind I'm tusslin'

Back and forth 'tween here and hustlin'

I don't wanna time travel no more

I wanna be here, I'm thinking



On this porch I'm rockin'

Back and forth like Lightning Hopkins

If anybody speak to Scotty

Tell him, beam me up



So can I get a window seat?

Don't want nobody next to me

I just want a ticket outta town

A look around and a safe touch down



Window seat

Don't want nobody next to me

I just want a chance to fly

A chance to cry and a long bye-bye



But I need you to miss me

Need somebody come get me

I need your direction

Need your energy, yes, I do



I need someone to clap for me

Need your affection

Somebody say, come back

Come back, baby, come back

I want you to need me



Come back, come back, baby, come back

Come back, come back, baby, come back

Come back, come back, baby, come back



But can I get a window seat?

Don't want nobody next to me

I just want a ticket outta town

A look around and a safe touch down



I just need a chance to fly

A chance to cry and a long bye-bye
