Title: Am I Asking Too Much


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
