Excellent write, arrangement, singing. So much goodness here. For example, the construction of the chorus...

To point out the obvious (since you co-wrote it),
The title gets placed at the start and end of the chorus:

   IF YOU'D ASK, i'd tell you that i love you
   ...
   you could have me in a heartbeat, IF YOU'D ASK

But that's not enough, as it's used to develop the chorus:

   IF YOU'D ASK, i'd tell you that i love you
   IF YOU'D ASK you'd know i never stopped
   IF YOU'D ASK about the future
   i'd forget about the past
   you could have me in a heartbeat, IF YOU'D ASK

It's only rhymed once in the chorus, which gives it weight:

   IF YOU'D ASK about the future
   i'd forget ABOUT THE PAST

Of course, none of this means anything if it doesn't pull the heartstrings. And of course, it does. smile

Thanks, David. All that cool lyric stuff is Bill's doing...
