All I Asked Of You Lyrics by Steve Forbert

Over With You

0

Well, I hear you talk and I hear you tell it
Well, I always get what the hell I want
But we disagree once again, my darling
'Cause it's clear to me that I usually don't
All I asked of you was a chance to make it right
Right (right), right
I was at that house where the one-armed man lived
What I saw up there was some disrepair
If I saw your heart, after all we’ve been through
Would it look to be
Much the same in there
All I asked of you was a chance to make it right
Right (right), right
The way your sword tailed cat left the porch and showed me
What a rocking chair and a kid can do
I’ll be on my way
When your clock strikes morning
Down the break of day on the five-oh-two
All I asked of you was a chance to make it right
Right (right), right
This is not the way
It should be, my darling
You should be my wife
I should work all day
You should rest your mind there in bed beside me
When I get back home off the vast highway
All I asked of you was a chance to make it right
Right (right)
All I asked of you was a chance to make it right
Right, right
[Instrumental Outro]
