CAN I?
(from Imago's latest album — Effect Desired None)

I'll fix my bed
I'll put the toothpaste cap back on
I'll clear the plates
I'll sleep before dawn
No more hours of TV
I can read some more
I'll never leave the light on
I'll draw the curtains
Then I'll lock the doors

Been putting things of
Like this guilty prayer
That I've been hiding from you Lord
I'm gonna say it Lord
I'm gonna brave it

Can I ask him from you?
Oh I'd be the happiest thing
This was plan A to begin with
Can I ask him from you?
Oh I'd be the craziest doll
With the second greatest gift of all

I'll put my shoes, in the right box
I'll learn to cook too I'll even do some laundry
I don't want to, but I could iron too
I'll practice guitar
I'll be smart with money
Though I'm always good with cars
I'll remember to budget my shopping hours

Been putting things of
Like this guilty prayer
That I've been hiding from you
Lord I'm gonna say it Lord
I'm gonna brave it

Can I ask him from you?
Oh I'd be the happiest thing
This was plan A to begin with
Can I ask him from you?
Oh I'd be the craziest doll
With the second greatest gift of all

If it's Your will,
Lord If it's Your will,
Lord Keep him safe and steady
But please, please make him really love me

If it's Your will,
Lord Only if it's Your will,
Lord Make him Yours and ready
But I've gotta do this
I really gotta ask this

Can I... can I... can I...
Oh can I.... can I have him, Lord?

my favorite song in the album. also the first opm as my song of the week. hehe.

good job aia. a prayer (even if it's self-serving =) ) is more powerful when it is sang.
