I want to ask you to stay
I want to ask you to not keep me at bay
I want to ask you to let me in
I want to ask you to catch me as I descend
I want to ask you to catch me as I fall
I want to ask you to sprout your wings as to you I crawl
I want to ask you to hold me close as you take me and fly
I want to ask you to hold me in your arms while into the sky we climb

Slowly into you, you have let me be  
Little by little you have let me see
Catch me, I am falling  
Can you not hear for you my heart calling

Please hit the ground before I do
I want to ask but am afraid.....
