"Anything You Ask" lyrics

"Anything You Ask"

I was lonely with you today
But you could always convince me to stay
You spend so much time looking in my eyes
You could almost convince me
That you know what I'm like
Heaven's not a place in the sky anymore
So why am I falling short on joy?

I had a dream you pulled me under the sea
I'd raise a glass to anything you ask me to believe
I said you could put your hands around my neck
I don't know why I said it

I was braver the day before
I went knocking on your door
I was ironed out, organized myself
Nobody's baby now, no one to tell me how
To make my bed and eat my veg
I wasn't looking for a keeper

I had a dream you pulled me under the sea
I'd raise a glass to anything you ask me to believe
I said you could put your hands around my neck
I don't know why I said it
