Am I Asking Too Much
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.
Through a shadowed world
I drift in emptiness and doubt
Because I push aside the love
I just can't live without
Please won't you give my crying eye
Just one more chance to see
That look upon your face
That promised love to me
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all
Kiss my ears with gentle words I need to hear
(Baby I love you)
Let your arms reach out and
Tell me that you need me dear
(Baby I need you)
'Cause if you need me darling
Baby, you'll forgive
(Forgive me dear)
You'll forgive me says the breath of air
I need to live
Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say we're through
Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you
All the precious hours we've wasted
All the bitter tears we've tasted
I need your love inside of me
Make me the girl I used to be
In your heart is there no longer room for me to live
When all I did was take, all you did was give
All the tears I made you cry
Turned your heart to stone
Has loneliness made up your mind
To live alone
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all
Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you
Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say were through
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
