If You Asked Me To

If You Asked Me To

Written by Diane Warren
Performed by Patti LaBelle

Used to be that I believed in something
Used to be that I believed in love
It's been a long time since I've had that feelin'
I could love someone,
I could trust someone
I said I'd never let nobody near my heart again, darlin'
I said I'd never let nobody in

If you asked me to
I just might change my mind
And let you in my life forever
If you asked me to
I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever
If you asked me to
If you asked me to

Somehow, ever since I've been around you
Can't go back to being my own
Can't help feelin', darlin', since I've found you
That I've found my home
That I'm finally home

I said I'd never let nobody get too close to me, darlin'
I said I needed, needed to be free
If you asked me to
I just might change my mind
And let you in my life forever
If you asked me to
I just might give my heart
And stay here in your arms forever

If you asked me to and I would give my world
Little baby, I need you now
Ask me to and I'd do anything for you, baby
For you, baby

If you asked me to
I'll let you in my life forever
If you asked me to
All you gotta do is ask me to
If you want it
If you asked me to
I could give you my heart
I'll give you anything that I say, baby
If you asked me to
I'll do anything that you want me to do, just ask me
All you gotta do is ask me to
If you asked me to
I'll give my life
All you gotta do is ask me to
If you asked me to.
