All I'm Asking For (feat. Diane Marie)
All the world's a stage
But I'm always cast with the very worst of players
Maybe when I turn the page
You'll be there at last
The answer to all my prayers
Or maybe there's a villain who's ripped
All the pleasant pages from my script
Still I keep on wishin'
You'll be in the next edition
I know the odds and I'm not pretending
That I am guaranteed a happy ending
Either way I know the show must go on
And so I keep on trying
I hope you're not lying on the cutting room floor
One Prince Charming's all I'm asking for
Am I so wild and so unruly
That no one could love me truly?
Will my way of life and laughter
Spoil my happily ever after?
But every now and then
I wonder what's to blame of an endless host of factors
I wonder if and when
I'll ever win the game
Against good liars and bad actors
Is someone on a mission to be
The perfect audition for me?
No more art for art's sake
I have had my share of heartbreak
I played my part and though I've been rejected
A new show can start when you least expect it
Cause you came and stole the scene of my heart
So perfectly on cue
Now I'm here with you
No longer left wanting more
What I have is all I'm asking for
But I'm always cast with the very worst of players
Maybe when I turn the page
You'll be there at last
The answer to all my prayers
Or maybe there's a villain who's ripped
All the pleasant pages from my script
Still I keep on wishin'
You'll be in the next edition
I know the odds and I'm not pretending
That I am guaranteed a happy ending
Either way I know the show must go on
And so I keep on trying
I hope you're not lying on the cutting room floor
One Prince Charming's all I'm asking for
Am I so wild and so unruly
That no one could love me truly?
Will my way of life and laughter
Spoil my happily ever after?
But every now and then
I wonder what's to blame of an endless host of factors
I wonder if and when
I'll ever win the game
Against good liars and bad actors
Is someone on a mission to be
The perfect audition for me?
No more art for art's sake
I have had my share of heartbreak
I played my part and though I've been rejected
A new show can start when you least expect it
Cause you came and stole the scene of my heart
So perfectly on cue
Now I'm here with you
No longer left wanting more
What I have is all I'm asking for
