Just to hold you in my arms
Is all that I ask.
I long to feel you next to me
Like I did in the past.
I’m not asking you to stay.
I’m not asking you to say
That you love me.
Just to see you smile again
Is all that I ask.
I’d give everything I have
If I could make it last.
I just wish you wouldn’t go.
I’m just wishing you could know
That I love you.
If you should ever fall,
If you should ever call,
Let me be there for you.
That’s all that I ask.
