Nina Simone
That’s All I Ask
[Verse]
Don't try to blow out the sun for me, baby
I'm not asking for what I know can't be
All that I ask is a kiss a day
And I'll give you love that'll never go away
Yes, I will; yes, I will
I wouldn't ask you to lift up this great big world, little baby
I'm not that kind of a girl
All that I ask is a smile or two
And nothing in this world will be too good for you
[Bridge]
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody knows how deep my love for you really goes
But boy, I want you to know
I wouldn't ask you to hold back the light of dawn, baby
That's too much to ask of anyone
All that I ask is your loving ways
And I'll keep you happy
For the rest of your natural born days, baby
[Outro]
You hear me talking to you
I'll keep you happy
I'll keep you happy for the rest of your days, daddy
Just believe me
All I ask of you
