If You Ask

Well I've come to know the look on your face

When you're lying about where you've been

Or how much you spent

I know when you will raise your fingers

To your mouth as if to wipe away the shame

It's not a game, I know you feel bad

If you ask for my forgiveness

If you call my name, I will come

If you ask for my love, I will give you some

Someday I know you'll understand

Someday you'll finally realize

What you're doing to yourself

If you ask for my forgiveness

If you call my name, I will come

If you ask for my love, I will give you some

We've been dancing to that same old song

Over and over again

I wanna be your lover

I don't want to be your policeman

So tonight when you finally make

Your way back to our door

I'll let you sleep it off, like I did the night before

When you ask for my forgiveness

When you call my name, I will come

When you ask for my love, I will give you some

In the morning I will get you up

And I will smile just when you want me to

'Cause I'm, I'm all you have
