Yes Lyrics

couples gather on the street

no way they notice me

but i watch them walk together

and it reminds me

of nights when everyone was gone

and i ended up alone

nights that were unsafe to hope for anything



lately i have noticed that so much

is not what i imagined it'd be.


when the harder times come calling on us
we'll know if we're gonna need



(chorus)

promises


don't promise me
say yes

say no or yes

but don't promise



for all the reasons not to try


i can't forget the times

i swore that if i finally knew
the answers to my prayers those nights

when it came time to decide i'd just know

and i would be ready




lately i have noticed that so much

is not what i'd imagined it'd be
when the harder times come calling on us

we'll know if we're gonna need
