If You Asked Me To
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Used to be that I believed in something
Used to be that I believe in love
It's been a long time since I've had that feeling
I could love someone
I could trust someone
I said I'd never let nobody near my heart again, darlin'
I said I'd never let nobody in
But if you asked me to
I just might change my mind
And let you in my life, forever
If you asked me to
I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever
If you asked me to
If you asked me to
Somehow ever since I've been around you
Can't go back to being on my own
Can't help feeling, darlin', since I've found you
That I've found my home
That I'm finally home
I said I'd never let nobody get too close to me, darlin'
I said I needed, needed to be free
(But if you asked me to)
Ask me to, I will give my world to you baby
I need you now
Ask me to, I'll do anything for you baby
For you baby
If you asked me to
I'd let you in my life forever
If you asked me to
