Because I Asked You

Why would you want to take it slow?
Hold me until I let you go?
Or treat me like a tennis pro?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to dim the light?
Let that record play all night?
Scramble a yoke with a wire?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Because I asked you
Because I asked you to
Why would you want to tell the truth?
Or furnish me with mathematical proof?
Or jump with me off of the roof?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to hold me tight?
Talk me out of my stage fright?
Or help me out with my rewrites?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Because I asked you
Because I asked you to
I looked in your eyes
I am so polite
Think about it
I'll be here all night
Why would you want to let me sleep?
Or look before you cross the street?
Into my dreams, between my sheets
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to take it slow?
Or tell me something I don't know?
Or when I say so, let it go?
Why would you want to do that?
Why would you want to do that?
Because I asked you
Because I asked you
Because I love you
I looked in your eyes
I am so polite
Just think about it
I'll be here all night
