Michael Ball - All I Ask of You
(andrew lloyd webber/don black/christopher hampton)
No more talk of darkness,
Forget these wide-eyed fears.
I’m here, nothing can harm you -
My words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
Let daylight dry your tears.
I’m here, with you, beside you,
To guard you and to guide you . . .
Say you love me
Every waking moment,
Turn my head
With talk of summertime . . .
Say you need me with you,
Now and always . . .
Promise me that all
You say is true -
That’s all I ask of you . . .
Let me be your shelter,
Let me be your light.
You’re safe:
No-one will find you
Your fears are far behind you . . .
All I want is freedom,
A world with no more night . . .
And you always beside me
To hold me and to hide me . . .
Say you’ll share with me
One love, one lifetime . . .
Let me lead you from your solitude . . .
Say you need me with you
Here, beside you . . .
Anywhere you go,
Let me go too -
That’s all I ask of you . . .
Say you’ll share with me
One love, one lifetime . . .
Say the word
And I will follow you . . .
Share each day with me,
Each night, each morning . . .
Say you love me . . .
Love me -
That’s all I ask of you . . .
Love me,
That’s all I ask of you
