Luke Elliot Lyrics - If You Ask Me To

Luke Elliot - If You Ask Me To

Well, the phone rang at nine o´clock
I rolled out of bed in some little Parisian flop
And your voice exploded through the line
Well there you are. I´ve been trying to get ahold of you.
No doubt you´ve done something you´ll never own up to.
You know the truth has a better chance than you do of change.
I thought of easy living down there on the Champs-Élysées

I waited just for you, but you´re leaving
Don´t you think I wanted to? I wasn´t teasing
I´d tear the whole world apart if you asked me to

I remember divine intervention looking something like this
There was terror in a room, and then a moment of bliss
And a confusion about what to do suddenly became crystal clear
I grew eyes in the back of my head, and a new kind of vision appeared

I waited just for you, but you´re leaving
Don´t you think I wanted to? I wasn´t teasing
Everything´s on loan, and overdue
Can´t leave good enough alone, but I´ll try again if you ask me to

I look down on my knees
A string of bad decisions, well, joke's on me
Your words repeat over and over in my mind
The same thing happens every time
Only now, we´re all being dragged behind

I waited just for you, but you´re leaving
Don´t you think I wanted to? I wasn´t teasing
Everything´s on loan, and overdue
Can´t leave good enough alone, so I´ll stay gone this time if you ask me to
