Song for the Asking Lyrics

Here is my song for the asking
Ask me and I will play
So sweetly, I'll make you smile

This is my tune for the taking
Take it, don't turn away
I've been waiting all my life

Thinking it over, I've been sad

    It is a song which I believe is about a love for someone or something you lost and really is an allegory of all humanities need to be wanted and loved by someone or something.
    The last short verse is poignant:-
    “Ask me and I will play........All the love that I hold inside.”
    I think the song should continue to describe the love that is inside all of us who have lost someone or something.
