You Asked Me To
Unwavering Devotion: You Asked Me To by Elvis Presley
Lyrics
Long ago and far away
Reflecting on a distant time and place.
In my old common labor shoes
Describing humble, everyday work shoes.
I turned the world all which-a-way
Turning life in various directions.
Just because you asked me to
Actions taken in response to a request.
Likened to no other feel'
Comparing a unique feeling to others.
Summer love is simple true
Describing a simple and genuine summer love.
There's no end to what I'd do
Unlimited commitment to the person.
Just because you asked me to
Actions done solely in response to a request.
Let the world call me a fool
Indifference to the world's judgment.
Let it; things are right with me and you
Acceptance of the situation between the speaker and the person.
That's all that matters and I'll do
Emphasizing that their relationship is the only thing that matters.
Anything you ask me to
Expressing willingness to do anything asked.
Knowin' how much I love you
Acknowledging the depth of love for the person.
After all I've been through
Despite challenges faced, the speaker remains devoted.
I'd turn and walk away from you
Rejecting the idea of walking away for the sake of the request.
Just because you asked me to
Let the world call me a fool
Restating the importance of the relationship.
Let it; things are right with me and you
Emphasizing contentment despite external judgments.
That's all that matters and I'll do
Reiterating the significance of the relationship and willingness to comply.
Anything you ask me to
Expressing readiness to fulfill any request made.
