Sarah Brightman & Cliff Richard -- All I ask of you
Raoul (Cliff) No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears; I'm here, nothing can harm you, my words will warm and calm you. Let me be your freedom, let daylight dry your tears; I'm here, with you, beside you, to guard you and to guide you.
Christine (Sarah) Say you'll love me ev'ry waking moment; turn my head with talk of summertime. Say you need me with you now and always; promise me that all you say is true, that's all I ask of you.
Raoul Let me be your shelter, let me be your light; you're safe, no one will find you, your fears are far behind you.
Christine All I want is freedom, a world with no more night; and you, always beside me, to hold me and to hide me.
Raoul Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime; let me lead you from your solitude. Say you want me with you, here beside you, anywhere you go, let me go too, that's all I ask of you.
Christine Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.
Together Say the word and I will follow you. Share each day with me, each night, each morning.
Christine Say you love me ...
Raoul You know I do.
Together: Love me, that's all I ask of you ...
Love me, that's all I ask of you.
