"If You Ask Me" lyrics - MARTINA MCBRIDE

If you ask me, I'll tell you I'm fine. I'm forty and time if flying bye
But what I'm thinking is much far from that and closer to what's not what makes me shine.
I'm checking out what's missing from what I left behind and I have found it.
It's in the look of my best friend's eyes, it's the life with a child. It's the life I can't call mine.
I wish that I could have, what the world of mother's have, the feeling of unimaginable love, yes the unimaginable.
The kind of love that greets you and leaves you with the comfort of forever. Only a mother's love
I can shine in my career and can feel the comfort of a home I bought on my own but it still feels empty, because something's missing.
It's in the look of the of my best friend's eyes, it's the life with a child. It's the life I can't call mine.
I have learned that I can do this, a life with a bond, and I can make an impact on those without a home.
I can make a difference and help my sisters with the love and security that they are unable to give and help their babies live the life they are supposed to live.
We can come together and make a bond to keep a child safe and in a home that is without harm.
If you ask me, it's the look in a child's eyes. It is the life that is mine with the love a child that is not left behind.
