Too Much to Ask Lyrics

[Verse 1: Niall Horan]
Waiting here for someone
Only yesterday, we were on the run
You smile back at me and your face lit up the sun
Now I'm waiting here for someone

[Pre-Chorus: Niall Horan]
And oh, love, do you feel this rough?
Why's it only you I'm thinking of?

[Chorus: Niall Horan]
My shadow's dancing
Without you for the first time
My heart is hoping
You'll walk right in tonight
To tell me there are things that you regret
'Cuz if I'm being honest, I ain't over you yet
It's all I'm asking
Is it too much to ask?
Is it too much to ask?

[Verse 2: Niall Horan]
Someone's moving outside
The lights come on down the drive
I forget you're not here when I close my eyes
Do you still think of me sometimes?

[Pre-Chorus: Niall Horan]
And oh, love, watch the sun coming up
Don't it feel fucked up we're not in love?

[Chorus: Niall Horan]
My shadow's dancing
Without you for the first time
My heart is hoping
You'll walk right in tonight
To tell me there are things that you regret
'Cuz if I'm being honest, I ain't over you yet
It's all I'm asking
Is it too much to ask?

[Breakdown: Niall Horan]
My shadow's dancing
Without you for the first time
My heart is hoping
You'll walk right in tonight

[Chorus: Niall Horan]
And tell me there are things that you regret
'Cuz if I'm being honest, I ain't over you yet
My shadow's dancing
Without you for the first time
My heart is hoping
You'll walk right in tonight
And tell me there are things that you regret
'Cuz if I'm being honest, I ain't over you yet
That's all I'm asking
Is it too much to ask?

[Outro: Niall Horan]
That's all I'm asking
Is it too much to ask?
That's all I'm asking
Is it too much to ask?
