IF THAT'S NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

IF THAT'S NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

I'm not asking you to dance with me
I can dance all by myself
I'm not writing you a love song
I've plenty on the shelf;
I don't want to know your history
I could care less 'bout your past
I'm just asking for your future
If that's not too much to ask?

If that's not too much to ask, love
Come sit close by my side
And listen very closely
While I ask you to be my bride;
It doesn't matter where you've been
Or why you're now alone
I'll love you and only you
'Til I'm skin and bones.

To awake with you each morning
To feel you touching me
I'd give up my place in Heaven
Just to feel & taste & see:
Your body curled up next to mine
Forgetting both our pasts
Repeat aloud "I do", darling
If that's not too much to ask?

If that's not too much to ask, love
The future is now all ours
To Hell with the yesterday's
And all the wasted hours;
As sure as the sun that shine's
I promise love that lasts
Your heart will be my reward
If that's not too much to ask?
