Asking for Your Love

She would ask for Tanqueray
Lying on the grass, my hands are sweating
For just a chance with you baby
Set out in the heat of the day
Touch my arm when she laughs, I’m still waiting
For just a chance

I’m asking for your love, baby I’ve said my piece
Maybe its like they say, you gotta love me or let me be
Always had the type of face
You’re too inviting, men lined up waiting
For a chance
Out in the cold and grey
Our heads tipped back, the rain is falling
This bird, she flies

I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
Maybe its like they say, you gotta love me or let me be

When her shoulder shows, its not skin and bone
I give thanks and float away
When her shoulder shows, its not skin and bone
I give thanks and float away

I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
I’m asking for your love baby I’ve said my piece
Maybe its like they say, you gotta love me or let me be
