I'm asking

I’m not asking you to stay with me forever
I know you can’t promise the unknown
And I know you can’t say I’m never gonna be alone

I’m not asking you to love me until your dying day
I know you can’t be sure of what’s coming up ahead
And I know that you can’t say that you will stay

I’m not asking you to promise a thousand ‘I love you’s
I know you can’t see what will happen tomorrow
And I know there’s a chance we won’t make it through

But what I am asking you is will you be here today
Will you stand beside me when everyone else turns away?
Be the one to tell me everything is gonna be okay

I’m asking if you’ll comfort me when the tears fall like rain
Make me feel safe when my world is falling apart
Support me when I do something crazy and insane

I’m asking if you can love me today
Can you be everything I need here and now
And turn my world upside down.
