Just a little bit of sunset when the day is through
Where the clouds from smokestacks never hide the view
Just an untamed river rushing to the sea
Just a heart laid open and a spirit free

Now is that too much to ask

One resolution that lasts through the tears
One lover's promise that won't disappear
Just a little forgiveness for the wrong we've done
And someone keeping track of all the battles we've won

Now is that too much, is it too much to ask
I really need to learn before this moment has passed
Gonna open my heart to a love that will last
Now is that too much, too much to ask

There is no future, there is no past
But still the moment rushes by so fast
Show some kindness, it's not hard to do
Give a little love, it will come back to you

Now is that too much, is it too much to ask
I really need to learn before this moment has passed
Gonna open my heart to a love that will last
Now is that too much, too much to ask

While I'm alive
My heart's still beating
Gonna learn about love
And talk about the meaning
Of happiness and the reason I'm alive

Now is that too much, is it too much to ask
I really need to learn before this moment has passed
Gonna open my heart to a love that will last
Now is that too much

Now is that too much, is it too much to ask
I really need to learn before this moment has passed
Gonna open my heart to a love that will last
Now is that too much, too much to ask
