As I Ask ...

If I tell you everything ...  

how much of everything

are you willing to know

 

If I give you everything ...  

how much of everything

are you willing to take

 

If I promise you anything ...

how much of my promise

are you willing to keep

 

As I ask you for one thing ...  

but how much of that one thing

— are you willing to give
