Ask Me Now (How I Wish)
Once you said you loved me
Placed no one above me
Prayed for me to make that vow
What dumb thing did I care
So busy being blasé
How I wish you'd ask me now
I was vain and blind then
Prone to be unkind then
Wish they'd turn back time somehow
Then I was audacious
I ignored what was precious
How I wish you'd ask me now
I thought then I'd always be
All footloose and fancy free
How could I have been so blind
What I once made light of
Turns out to be true love
Once my ego proved me
Flattered me and fooled me
More times than the laws allow
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
I thought then I'd always be
All footloose and fancy free
How could I have been so blind
What I once made light of
Turns out to be true love
Once my ego proved me
Flattered me and fooled me
More times than the laws allow
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
Placed no one above me
Prayed for me to make that vow
What dumb thing did I care
So busy being blasé
How I wish you'd ask me now
I was vain and blind then
Prone to be unkind then
Wish they'd turn back time somehow
Then I was audacious
I ignored what was precious
How I wish you'd ask me now
I thought then I'd always be
All footloose and fancy free
How could I have been so blind
What I once made light of
Turns out to be true love
Once my ego proved me
Flattered me and fooled me
More times than the laws allow
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
I thought then I'd always be
All footloose and fancy free
How could I have been so blind
What I once made light of
Turns out to be true love
Once my ego proved me
Flattered me and fooled me
More times than the laws allow
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
You asked me did I care
My attention was elsewhere
How I wish you'd ask me now
