She Said Yes Lyrics - Clay Aiken

He never had given much thought to dancing 

But she gave a lot of thought to being asked 

Well, he'd never been good at coming right on out and asking 

She'd never been given the chance 

But something moved him 'cross that old gym floor 

When fear was holding fast 

And to his surprise, the words came at last 

And she said yes 

To his half-hearted request 

And they held on 

For dear life 

'Til the last song played 

They won't let go 

It's beyond their control 

They lit a flame with the match God had made 

When she said yes 

From that night on, the fire was burning 

And they sure did shine in its light 

And he knew as long as this old world kept turning 

He wanted her by his side 

So with a ring 

And a nervous smile 

And some lines that he'd rehearsed 

He said the sweetest words that she'd ever heard 

And she said yes 

To his whole-hearted request 

And they'll hold on 

For dear life 

'Til the last stars fade 

They won't let go 

It's beyond their control 

They lit a flame with the match God had made 

When she said yes 

They lit a flame with the match God had made 

When she said yes
