This Is All I Ask

This Is All I Ask - Nat King Cole

Written by：Gordon Jenkins

As I approach the prime of my life

I find I have the time of my life

Learning to enjoy at my leisure

All the simple pleasure

And so I happily concede

This is all I ask

This is all I need

Beautiful girls

Walk a little slower when you walk by me

Lingering sunset

Stay a little longer with the lonely sea

Children everywhere

When you shoot at bad men shoot at me

Take me to that strange enchanted land

Grownups seldom understand

Wandering rainbows

Leave a bit of color for my heart to own

Stars in the sky make my wish come true

Before the night has flown

And let the music play

As long as there's a song to sing

Then I will stay younger than spring

Wandering rainbows

Leave a bit of color for my heart to own

Stars in the sky

Make my wish come true

Before the night has flown

And let the music play

As long as there's a song to sing

And I will stay younger than spring
