Lyrics:

Is it asking too much to be given time

To know these songs and to sing them

Is it asking too much of my vacant smile

And my laugh and lies that bring them



But as the stars are going out

And this stage is full of nothing

And the friends have all but gone

For my life my god I'm singing



We'll take our hearts outside

Leave our lives behind

I'll watch the stars go out...



Is it asking too much of my favorite friends

To take these songs for real

Is it asking too much of my partner's hands

To take these songs real



Is it asking too much

Is it asking too much
