Asking Too Much - Jan Johnston, Jamie Myerson

Silent child I’ve returned

Quiet afternoon

The rain trying to get in

I’m that child again

So I close my eyes and watch the picture

To your face I recall

And sometimes when you’re not around

Sometimes when I’m feeling down

I want you

To chase my fears

Yes wipe them clean away

Your tender Touch

Am I asking too much?

That when we’re old

Can we still love?

Stand on the sand

And watch the skies turn blue

Remembering back

That when we’re old

Can we still love?

Stand on the sand

And watch the skies turn blue

Remembering back

To our young love

Remembering back

To our young love

Remember back

How we first fell in love

How we first fell in love

I was floating with the world

Floating with ideas

Floating with commitment

Don’t want a superficial love

Is that asking too much?

So run across my universe

And whisper my name

I’m searching for a new way

To wake up

Am I asking too much?

That when we’re old

Can we still love?

Stand on the sand

And watch the skies turn blue

Remembering back

That when we’re old

Can we still love?

Stand on the sand

And watch the skies turn blue

Remembering back

To our young love

Remembering back

How we first fell in love

How we first fell in love

It’s a deeper meaning

So let it out

I sense you

When you’re not near

And then you wait

To wake up

Was I asking too much?
