If I Asked You
If I asked you to write a piece for me,
What would it be,
Would it be a poem, a ballad, or a love song from within,
Would you pour out your hearts until it fills this whole room
If I asked you to perform for me,
What would you do,
A play or an orchestra,
With sounds that pierces through my heart,
Would you enchant a room with your sweet voice,
And make my soul melt
If I asked you to tell me how you really felt,
Would you open up at once,
Or do so in bits,
Enough to keep me always longing for you
If I asked you to tell me that you love me,
Would you whisper it in my ear,
Or declare it from great heights for the whole world to hear,
Would I look into your eye and be smitten,
Brought to my knees by your gentle smile
