Billie Holiday
That’s All I Ask of You [Alternate Take]
[Intro]
You've heard my story before
I've often told it, you know
Well, it's just the same
A dream that's been in vain

[Verse 1]
Someone to miss when I'm away
Someone to kiss at close of day
A heart that's new with a love that's true
That's all I ask of you

[Verse 2]
Someone to care when things look blue
A love to share my whole life through
We're side by side, just a groom and a bride
That's all I ask of you

[Bridge]
Now, most of my plans have crumbled and faded
May this one come true
I'll make a start, I'll give you my heart
The rest is up to you

[Verse 3]
So, give your love in one sweet kiss
I ask no more of you than this
Be sweet and kind, say that you'll be mine
That's all I ask of you
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Now, most of my plans have crumbled and faded
May this one come true
I'll make a start, I'll give you my heart
The rest is up to you

[Verse 3]
So, give your love in one sweet kiss
I ask no more of you than this
Be sweet and kind, say that you'll be mine
That's all I ask of you
