Tony Bennett

This Is All I Ask- Artist: Tony Bennett as sung on "Tony Bennett's Greatest Hits, Vol. III" Columbia CL 2313- peak Billboard position # 70 in 1963 also charted in 1963 by Burl Ives at # 63- Words and Music by Gordon JenkinsAs I approach the prime of my lifeI find I have the time of my lifeLearning to enjoy at my leisureAll the simple pleasuresAnd so I happily concedeThat this is all I askThis is all I needBeautiful girls, walk a little slower when you walk by meLingering sunsets, stay a little longer with the lonely seaChildren everywhere, when you shoot at bad men, shoot at meTake me to that strange, enchanted land grown-ups seldom understandWandering rainbows, leave a bit of color for my heart to ownStars in the sky, make my wish come true before the night has flownAnd let the music play as long as there's a song to singAnd I will stay younger than SpringTranscribed by Robin HoodThese lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned aboveand do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheetmusic, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets.
