    Year of Song #7:  Say Yes or Say No

    this is a song that came out of waiting.  

    and waiting.  

    and waiting.

    It was one of those crushes ya know?  Not the fleeting, “she’s pretty cool” kind, but the type that you just can’t ignore — always in the back of your mind, your heart.  But I didn’t have the courage to address it right away. Classes gave me an excuse to procrastinate, which was the biggest mistake ever.  There was a lot of wasted time agonizing, waiting and wondering if she would say yes or say no.  

    But I just couldn’t take it.  I finally went for it and said what I need to say to her.  And no, it didn’t work out, but it’s ok. We’re good now :) 

    -Andrew

    oh lover, so much withered here, since you fell apart

    don’t pretend, can’t you see it’s finally time to face your world

    without lies

    but you just crack a smile, when i waste on you my best

    say yes or say no

    hold on, tell me what i’ve done? someone else, is in your eyes  

    don’t pretend, you should know what it meant to slay your man, take your bow

    but you just crack a smile, no more reasons left to chase

    say yes or say no

    nothing ever starts, nothing ever ends

    while i drown for your love, can’t you see what i am?

    and i pray you’ll make it real, there’s nothing i can feel until you

    say yes or say no

    if you just cracked a smile, you know i’d give it all away

    say yes or say no

    nothing ever starts, nothing ever ends

    while i’m drowning for your love, can’t you see who i am?

    and i pray you’ll make it real

    ‘cause there’s nothing left to feel—

    no, i don’t sleep, i don’t eat, i’m not strong enough to stand

    ever since you put me down, you broke the core of who i am

    so tell me what to do, i don’t care what i lose

    oh darlin’, it’s not too late 

    we’d be so good 

    but you gotta let me know

    say yes or say no

    say yes or say no
