This is a very sweet song from a new young Thai singer Newwy Patitta, popular in Thailand and Taiwan, yet remains in obscurity for westerners, I presume, mainly due to the language barrier.
I know no Thai personally but I was lucky enough to stumble upon a Chinese translation and worked out an English version based on that. (Please understand that I am not a translator so errors are inevitable. Please feel free to correct me!) Now Enjoy!

"Ask a word" by Newwy Patitta
Want to ask you a question, seriously
ask what you think of me.
Are we just talking like friends,
or are there something special hidden underneath?
Really want to know what is in your heart
please, please, could you let me konw?
Does what you are thinking
resemble what is in my heart?
*Just want to ask you, or it would be too late
could you tell me the answer sooner?
Is it love, or is it something else?
Could you, so kind-hearted, tell me?
Just want to ask you before I fall in love,
cos I don't know why now my heart
is beginning to swing between warm and cold,
whenever I meet you.
After a rain ,come floating the white clouds,
the sky will soon brighten up.
But why is it that my heart
is still wavering like that?
If you thought the same as I did
and we understood each other's heart
perhaps I wouldn't be so anxious;
the world might at once become beautiful,
just like the way we think it should be.
*Just want to ask you, or it would be too late
could you tell me the answer sooner?
Is it love, or is it something else?
Could you, so kind-hearted, tell me?
Just want to ask you before I fall in love,
'cos I don't know why now my heart
is beginning to swing between warm and cold,
whenever I meet you.
