Cameo

Cameo is an American soul-influenced funk group that formed in the early 1970s. Cameo was initially a 13-member group known as the New York City Players; this name was later changed to Cameo to avoid a lawsuit from Ohio Players,[citation needed] another group from that era. Since then, Cameo has recorded several hit records. As of 2009, some of the original members continue to perform together, while two others were hired by the hip hop group Outkast. Their influences include Rick James, Parliament-Funkadelic, contemporary funk bands like the Bar-Kays, Earth, Wind & Fire, Ohio Players, The Isley Brothers etc. and singers like Marvin Gaye, Billy Paul, Prince, Isaac Hayes, Stevie Wonder and Bootsy Collins. more »

I said don't run away
Or can you take me with you
He said that I can't stay
The world is covered in blue

If you have to leave
Oh tell me please
When I can see you again
My friend

I'm wasted
I'm wasted on you
I ask you the things that you want me to do
What'd you want me to do
I'm burning
I'm burnt out for you
You ask for things you know that I can't give to you
What'd you want me to do

I said don't be that way
You don't have to say this now
I know that he can't change
But the words escape his mouth

If you have to go
Please let me know
When I can see you again
My friend

I'm wasted
I'm wasted on you
I ask you the things that you want me to do
What'd you want me to do
I'm burning
I'm burnt out for you
You ask for things you know that I can't give to you
What'd you want me to do

Don't you runaway
Oh no don't you 
Please don't run away
Oh no no no
Don't you runaway
Please
Please don't run away
