Lyrics
[Verse 1]
To hear you say my name
To see you search my eyes
To feel you touch my hand
It more than satisfies
[Verse 2]
If I was not the first
Just say I'll be the last
It's too much to expect
But it's not too much to ask
[Chorus]
Now I can only dream
Of being all you need
And I can only try
To be the reason why
You think about today
And forget about the past
It's too much to expect
But it's not too much to ask
[Chorus]
Now I can only dream
Of being all you need
And I can only try
To be the reason why
You think about today
'Cause the past is just the past
It's too much to expect
But it doesn't hurt to ask
It's too much to expect
But it's not too much to ask
