Lyrics
VERSE 1:
I used to be a simple man
Yes was yes, no was no
I left when I had to go
But now it?s all be turned upside down
And I like, I love it
But I need it to change
Just a little sometimes
They get their way
CHORUS:
I hope it?s not too much to ask
To be a little kinder to me
I hope it?s not too much to ask, of you
VERSE 2:
They?ve got a way that moves my heart
But they got daggers that can pierce my
All my inner thoughts
Well don?t you know; it?s just the way
That some things have to be
I know when I have to speak
I?m biting my tongue
Just a little sometimes
They get their way
CHORUS:
I hope it?s not too much to ask
To be a little kinder to me
I hope it?s not too much to ask, of you
BRIDGE:
Making up pretty lies is not
The way I want to live
Come closer; think harder; and see
CHORUS:
I hope it?s not too much to ask
To be a little kinder to me
I hope it?s not too much to ask, of you
I hope it?s not, not too much
Not too hard, not too soft
Not too short, not too long
Not too weak, and not so strong
I hope it?s not too much to ask
Of you, you, you
