about

Hi! ‘All I Ask’ is a song that we, 'Les Paul's' (The Paul's), wrote for Sir Cliff Richard but because of recording delays arrived too late to be considered for his next album or upcoming 2020 UK tour.
The song was therefore released by us as a single on 2 February 2020 - for full information go to the song’s web page at bit.ly/37cIGhR - you can listen to the song by clicking on the link below or also on Soundcloud at soundcloud.com/paulrthomas/all-i-ask

Thank you, Paul at www.paullyrics.com:)!

lyrics

All I Ask

I’m just a poor boy
There was nothing I could do
I never had a chance, unlike you
I worked so hard all my days
The money I earn't was spent before I got paid
All I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone
All I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone

Yeah, I made enemies along the road
I’ve seen so many stories still to be told
If I’ve done wrong then please forgive
We never know how long we get to live

I’ve known love for most of my time
Been through dark tunnels along the line
Been through times they were good and were bad
I’ve been happy and I’ve been sad

But all I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone
All I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection
Well affection

I tried not to hurt anyone
At one time I followed The Sun
Never forget we’re made of dust
To dust we’ll return when we must

I want to live for as long as I can
But the truth is that I’m just a man
I’ll accept my fate when the time comes
And my soul will fly up towards the sun

All I ask, all I ask
All I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone
All I ask when my day is done
Is that I’ll be remembered with affection
