Matt Monro - This Is All I Ask Lyrics

Matt Monro Lyrics

"This Is All I Ask"

As I approach the prime of my life
I find I have the time of my life
Learning to enjoy at my leisure
All the simple pleasure
And so I happily concede

This is all I ask
This is all I need

Beautiful girls
Walk a little slower when you walk by me
Lingering sunset
Stay a little longer with the lonely sea
Children everywhere
When you shoot at bad men
Shoot at me
Take me to that strange enchanted land
Grownups seldom understand

Wandering rainbows
Leave a bit of color for my heart to own
Stars in the sky
Make my wish come true
Before the night has flown
And let the music play as long as there's a song to sing
Then I will stay younger than spring
