If You Asked Me To

(album: Because You Loved Me: The Songs Of Diane Warren - 1998)

Used to be that I believed in something
Used to be that I believed in love
It's been a long time since I've had that feeling
I could love someone, I could trust someone

I say that never let nobody near my heart again, darling
I say, I'd never let nobody in but

If you asked me to, I'd just might change my mind
And let you in my life forever
If you asked me to, I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever
If you asked me to, if you asked me to

Somehow ever since I've been around you
Can't go back to being on my own
(On my own)
Can't help feeling, darling, since I've found you
That I've found my home, that I'm finally home

I say like never let nobody get too close to me, darling
I said, "I needed, needed to be free but"

If you asked me to, I'd just might change my mind
And let you in my life forever
If you asked me to, I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever

If you asked me to and I will give my world
(Give my world)
To you, baby, I need you now
(I need you now)
Ask me too and I will do anything
(Anything)
For you, baby, for you baby

(If you asked me to)
I'll give you my heart
(If you asked me to)
I could trust someone
(If you asked me to)
I'll do anything, I'll do anything

(If you asked me to)
I could love someone, I could trust someone
(If you asked me to)
And let you in my heart
Can't go back to being on my own
(If you asked me to)
[Incomprehensible]
(If you asked me to)
