All I Ask Of You [Workshop Version] lyrics

RAOUL

I could bring you flowers

To mingle with your hair

But what good would be flowers

They only last an hour

I could bring you diamonds

But that would not be fair

I don't wish to malign them

But your eyes would outshine them

CHRISTINE

All I ask of you is a simple token

Just three words of love are all I ask

All I ask of you is sweetly spoken

Just three words, three words of love from you

That's all I ask of you

RAOUL

Three words I can give you

Come away tonight

Don't chance, waiting til' later

Each hour your danger's greater

CHRISTINE

You don't understand me

My star is now in sight

Tonight, I could achieve it

And you suggest I leave it

RAOUL

All I ask is when the music's ended

When the last ovation dies away

You'll recall the boy you once befriended

Now a man, a man in love with you

Christine, that's all I ask of you

CHRISTINE

All I ask of you is a simple token

Just three words of love are all I ask

All I ask of you is sweetly spoken

Say, "I love you"

RAOUL

I love you

CHRISTINE/RAOUL

Love me, that's all I ask of you

CHRISTINE

I must go

I mustn't miss my queue

Wait for me here

RAOUL

Christine, I love you

CHRISTINE

Order your fine horses

Have them at the door

While my last note is dying

CHRISTINE/RAOUL

Together we'll be flying
