Not asking for a lifetime, only for one night

searching for the right chords

That would make this song turn right

 

Not for a lifetime, but for a day

I’ll never ask if I should stay

Not for a lifetime, but for a day

That’s all I’ll ask , then be on my way

 

From Main Street to Montgomery

Listen to the motors roar

To tempt a sleeping heart to wake

I’d beat a footpath to your door

 

Talk with me awhile

See what time may bring

Not asking for a lifetime

Not asking for a ring

 

Walk with me awhile

Through a land of what might be

Not asking for a lifetime , just have this need to be

release)

And I’ll just go on believing

That one day I’ll find the key

That unlocks a hidden heart

That is longing to be free

 

Please use care (this is a sensitive subject for me, do not critique harshly)
basic d a g c pattern release is am em 4/4 timing for those that know music

Hey Chrys,

I remember reading this beautiful set of lyrics on the other site. I can’t help but think about the words and the meanings… lovely and sad.
