Title: Is It Too Much to Ask Style: Emotional ballad duet (male + female vocals), conversational like Where the Wild Roses Grow. Tempo: 74 BPM Key: A minor Time Signature: 4/4 Lyrics + Chords Verse 1 (Male) Am – F – C – G I want to treat you like a queen, Am – F – G – G My first, my only, my everything. Am – F – C – G But I need you gentle, need you kind, Am – F – G – G Soft words to ease my worried mind. Verse 2 (Female) You ask for something I can’t be, My past won’t let that side of me free. I can love you raw, I can love you true, But I can’t be soft the way you want me to. Chorus (Both) F – G – C – Am Is it too much to ask, F – G – C – G For tenderness to last? F – G – C – Am What’s the price of happiness, F – G – C – G If we keep hurting for nothing, endless? If we don’t change, we know the cost, This love we built could soon be lost. Verse 3 (Male) Every sharp word cuts so deep, Over things so small, wounds we keep. I only ask for your care, your time, Without it, love can’t stay alive. Verse 4 (Female) I’m afraid if I stay just as I am, You’ll walk away, no longer my man. But asking me to change what I can’t undo, Feels like the end for me and you. Bridge (Call & Response) Dm – Am – F – G (Male) How can there be love without care? (Female) How can I give what was never there? (Male) Do we let our story fade away? (Female) Or fight to live another day? Final Chorus (Both, powerful) Is it too much to ask, For tenderness to last? What’s the price of happiness, When we’re both so close to hopeless? If we don’t change, we’ll pay the cost, And the love of our lives will be lost. Outro (Whispered, fading) Am – F – C – G (Him) Don’t let it die… (Her) Don’t let it die… Arrangement (Minimal Notes) Verses: soft piano or acoustic guitar, solo vocals (male/female). Chorus: fuller, both voices, strings + light drums. Bridge: piano + strings only, call & response. Final chorus: full band, soaring. Outro: piano only, whispered duet.
Lyrics
I want to treat you like a queen,
My first, my only, my everything.
But I need you gentle, need you kind,
Soft words to ease my worried mind.
You ask for something I can’t be,
My past won’t let that side of me free.
I can love you raw, I can love you true,
But I can’t be soft the way you want me to.
Is it too much to ask,
For tenderness to last?
What’s the price of happiness,
If we keep hurting for nothing, endless?
If we don’t change, we know the cost,
This love we built could soon be lost.
Every sharp word cuts so deep,
Over things so small, wounds we keep.
I only ask for your care, your time,
Without it, love can’t stay alive.
I’m afraid if I stay just as I am,
You’ll walk away, no longer my man.
But asking me to change what I can’t undo,
Feels like the end for me and you.
(Male) How can there be love without care?
(Female) How can I give what was never there?
(Male) Do we let our story fade away?
(Female) Or fight to live another day?
Is it too much to ask,
For tenderness to last?
What’s the price of happiness,
When we’re both so close to hopeless?
If we don’t change, we’ll pay the cost,
And the love of our lives will be lost.(Him) Don’t let it die…
(Her) Don’t let it die…
