This Is All I Ask - Matt Monro

As I approach the prime of my life

I find I have the time of my life

Learning to enjoy at my leasure

All the simple pleasure

And so I happily concede

That this is all I ask

This is all I need

Beautiful girl, 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

And I will stay younger than spring
