Lyrics
YES
I was 12 and you were 10
when we first met in school
And I can say it was right then
I got my first time crush on you
In Junior High I got the nerve
To go and hold your hand
And when you smiled back at me
I thought...that I'd crash-land
At seventeen I bought a car
That only started on a prayer
And you would sit right next to me
The wind blowin' through your hair
When I drove out to Miller's point
To give you my class ring
I panicked when you teared all up
but didn't say a thing...
...then you said "yes"
Young love comes and young love goes
But no one ever knew
That we'd grow up and I'd still have
That school-boy crush on you
I made my way to see your dad
And your mom opened the door
I'm pretty sure they already knew
What I was coming for
We talked about so many things
But when it came to you
Your dad said "son, there's nothing more
That's left for us to do...but say yes"
INSTRUMENTAL
So here I am on bended knee
With a promise and this ring
Prayin' I hear the only word
That means more than anything....
(Pause)
...and you... say... yes... ("Yes)
